Notes on agent email
How personal and small-team operators give OpenClaw or Hermes a real address — without handing the agent an open inbox.

Hit the Free MCP send or mailbox limit? Here’s the upgrade path
OpenClaw/Hermes operators hitting Free caps via MCP (assistantmail_get_usage, send, create mailbox → 429/403). Check usage, follow the Upgrade URL, or open Starter checkout. Free: 1 mailbox, 25/day. Starter $9.99: 3 mailboxes, 1,000/mo, consent.
Switching from AgentMail: allowlist email for OpenClaw & Hermes
When AgentMail’s OpenClaw channel/trust path is blocked—or the Free→$20 cliff doesn’t fit personal use—Assistant Mail is MCP-first agent email with allowlist + consent. Free: 1 mailbox, 25/day. Starter $9.99.
Your OpenClaw agent needs email — without an open inbox
Gmail wasn’t built for agents. Give each approved OpenClaw or Hermes agent its own address on assistant-mail.ai — with allowlist, consent, retention, and spend caps.

Not an official OpenClaw or Hermes endorsement. Not for AISDR / cold outbound.
