read_message

MCP tool from Mail Muncher by craigjmidwinter

One message in full — metadata, body, attachment names and sizes — and optionally its whole thread in order.

How to use it

Project documentation lists read_message for the Mail Muncher MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
