How to connect Mail.app
Mail.app runs locally from a Node.js package published to the npm registry: @p-l-ta/mail-mcp version 1.3.5. It speaks MCP over stdio, so the client starts it as a program and talks to it through standard input and output. It needs Node.js; clients usually start it with npx - the usual command is npx -y @p-l-ta/mail-mcp@1.3.5.
In the mcpServers JSON format that many desktop and editor MCP clients read, the entry looks like this (placeholders in angle brackets):
{
"mcpServers": {
"mail-mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@p-l-ta/mail-mcp@1.3.5"
]
}
}
