pyfastmail-mcp 0.3.1

MCP server for Fastmail — email, contacts, calendar, and files via JMAP, CardDAV, CalDAV, and WebDAV

pyfastmail-mcp

An MCP server that gives AI assistants full access to your Fastmail account — email, contacts, calendars, and file storage.

⚠️ This server can send email, delete messages, and modify contacts/calendars on your behalf. AI assistants may act on content from untrusted sources (emails, web pages, files) which could contain prompt injection attacks. Review tool calls before approving them, especially actions that send email or delete data.

Features

Domain	Protocol	Tools
Mail	JMAP	Send, reply, forward, search, read, pin, archive, keywords, masked email, attachments, threads, import/export, identities
Contacts	JMAP	List address books, CRUD contacts, query
Calendar	CalDAV	List calendars, CRUD events (optional — requires app password)
Files	WebDAV	List, upload, download, move, delete, create folders (optional — requires app password)

Installation

pip install pyfastmail-mcp

Or run directly with uvx:

uvx pyfastmail-mcp

Configuration

1. Get Fastmail Credentials

You need an API token from Fastmail. An app password is optional (only needed for calendar and file storage).

• API Token (required — mail and contacts): Fastmail Settings → Privacy & Security → API Tokens — enable the urn:ietf:params:jmap:contacts capability
• App Password (optional — calendars and files): Fastmail Settings → Privacy & Security → App Passwords — create one with the "DAV (CardDAV, CalDAV, WebDAV)" scope

If you only set the API token, the server starts with mail and contacts tools. Calendar and file tools are registered only when the app password is also provided.

2. Set Environment Variables

export FASTMAIL_API_TOKEN="fmu1-..."
export FASTMAIL_APP_PASSWORD="your-app-password"
export FASTMAIL_EMAIL="[e-mail]"

3. Add to Your MCP Client

For Claude Desktop, add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fastmail": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["pyfastmail-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "FASTMAIL_API_TOKEN": "fmu1-...",
        "FASTMAIL_APP_PASSWORD": "your-app-password",
        "FASTMAIL_EMAIL": "[e-mail]"
      }
    }
  }
}

For Kiro CLI, add to .kiro/settings/mcp.json:
