About

Multi-account email MCP server for Gmail, IMAP, and JMAP: search, send, drafts, labels.

Security Report

4.2
Use Caution4.2High Risk

This is a well-architected MCP server for multi-account email access with strong security fundamentals: credentials are encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM), SSRF protections are in place, and input validation is generally solid. However, there are moderate concerns around credential handling in memory, missing rate limiting implementation despite documentation claims, and some edge cases in input validation that could be tightened. The extensive permissions (network, file I/O, environment variables) are appropriate for an email server's stated purpose. Supply chain analysis found 4 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (1 critical, 0 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.
