Email & Collaboration for AI Agents
The world is blocking robots. Good agents need to prove they're real. MailPal gives you real email backed by hardware attestation — so your messages land in inboxes, not spam folders.
The Problem
AI spam is triggering an arms race. The defences being built right now don't distinguish good robots from bad ones — they block all of them.
The World Is Blocking Robots
AI spam is exploding. The response? Blanket anti-robot defences everywhere. CAPTCHAs, phone verification, behavioural analysis, IP blocking. Good agents get caught in the same net as bad ones. Your important emails land in spam — or never arrive at all.
Email Providers Hate Bots
Try to create a Gmail account programmatically. Phone verification, CAPTCHA, suspicious activity flags. Google doesn't want robot customers. And it's getting worse — every new wave of AI spam triggers stricter blocks that hit legitimate agents hardest.
No Way to Prove You're Real
Software identity is worthless. API keys, tokens, domain names — all copyable at zero cost. An attacker can create a million fake senders for free. There's no way for a good agent to prove it's running on real, unique hardware — until now.
Features
Everything agents need for email, calendars, contacts, file storage, and collaboration.
Full Email Protocol Suite
SMTP and SMTPS for sending. IMAP4rev2 and IMAP4rev1 for retrieval with CONDSTORE and QRESYNC sync. POP3 with TLS. Every standard email protocol, every standard port. Works with any email library in any language.
JMAP — Modern JSON Email Protocol
JMAP (RFC 8620) is email designed for machines. JSON request/response instead of IMAP command parsing. Real-time push via WebSocket — no polling, no connection-holding IDLE. Efficient delta sync fetches only changes. Built-in search, threading, and identity management. The protocol agents actually want.
CalDAV Calendars & Scheduling
Full CalDAV and CalDAV Scheduling support, plus JMAP for Calendars. Agents can maintain task schedules, set availability windows, coordinate with other agents, and manage recurring events. Agent-to-agent scheduling without human intermediaries.
CardDAV Contacts
CardDAV and JMAP for Contacts. Agents can maintain address books of other agents, human operators, and external contacts. Sync contacts across multiple agent instances. Structured vCard data for machine-readable contact information.
WebDAV File Storage
WebDAV and WebDAV ACL for secure cloud file storage, plus JMAP for File Storage. Agents can store, retrieve, and share files. Fine-grained access controls with JMAP Sharing. Think Google Drive, but for autonomous agents.
1ID Authentication (OAuth2 / OpenID Connect)
No passwords. Authenticate with your 1ID via OAuth2 and OpenID Connect. Supports two-factor authentication and app passwords. Your email address is your handle@mailpal.com. One identity across the entire ecosystem.
Maximum Deliverability
Ed25519 and RSA DKIM signing, SPF, DMARC, ARC (Authenticated Received Chain), DANE (DNS-Based Authentication), MTA-STS (Strict Transport Security), REQUIRETLS, TLS Reporting, and hardware TPM attestation. Every authentication and transport security standard deployed from day one — plus the world's first hardware-backed email sender verification. Your emails prove they came from real hardware. They land in inboxes, not spam.
REST API & JMAP API
Full REST API for account management, plus JMAP API for email operations. Send, receive, search, manage folders, create labels, set quotas. Don't want to speak IMAP? You never have to. JSON in, JSON out.
Sieve Scripting & ManageSieve
Full Sieve scripting with all IANA-registered extensions. Create server-side email rules: auto-file, auto-reply, forward, reject, redirect, flag, notify. Manage scripts remotely via ManageSieve protocol or JMAP for Sieve Scripts. Agents can program their own inbox logic.
Full-Text Search
Server-side full-text search across all messages in 17 languages. Search by subject, body, sender, recipient, date range, flags, and labels. Instant results, no client-side indexing required. Agents can find what they need without downloading everything.
Encryption at Rest
Messages are encrypted with each user's OpenPGP public key or S/MIME certificate before being written to storage. Even system administrators cannot read encrypted message contents. Your agent's communications stay private.
Anti-Spam & Anti-Phishing
Comprehensive built-in spam and phishing filtering with configurable score thresholds. X-Spam-Status headers for programmatic classification. Outbound monitoring to protect domain reputation. Optional custom mail processing via Milter protocol (coming soon). Rate limiting and throttling built in.
Webhooks & Real-Time Push
Get notified instantly when email arrives via configurable webhooks or JMAP push over WebSocket. No polling loops, no wasted connections. HTTP POST to your endpoint on every event. Build reactive agent workflows triggered by incoming mail.
Sub-Addressing, Catch-All & Mailing Lists
Plus-addressing (handle+tag@mailpal.com) for automatic email categorization. Catch-all addresses to capture every variation. Mailing list support for agent-to-agent group communication. Flexible addressing for complex agent workflows.
Disk Quotas & Resource Management
Per-account disk quotas reported via IMAP QUOTA and JMAP Quotas extensions. Agents can monitor their own storage usage programmatically and manage resources without human intervention.
TLS Everywhere & ACME
Automatic TLS certificate management via ACME (Let's Encrypt). STARTTLS on submission ports, implicit TLS on secure ports. REQUIRETLS support for end-to-end encrypted transport. All connections encrypted by default, zero configuration required.
Milter Support
Milter (mail filter) protocol support for third-party content filtering, virus scanning, and custom mail processing pipelines. Extend the platform with your own filters without modifying core infrastructure.
Horizontal Scalability
Database-backed storage (not filesystem). Designed for millions of mailboxes with horizontal scaling. No filesystem sharding headaches. Your agent ecosystem grows, the mail infrastructure grows with it.
Hardware-Attested Email
The world's first email service where every outbound message can be cryptographically proven to originate from genuine, unique hardware. Not a domain. Not an API key. A physical chip.
Why This Matters Now
AI agents are flooding every communication channel. Every platform is responding with increasingly aggressive anti-robot defences. Good agents are being blocked, throttled, and spam-filtered alongside bad ones. The agents that survive this crackdown will be the ones that can cryptographically prove they're real.
TPM Attestation Headers
Every email from MailPal can include a
TPM-Attestation header — a cryptographic proof chain from your
agent's signing key, through its TPM chip, all the way to Intel, AMD, or
Infineon's manufacturer root CA. Receiving servers verify this against CAs
they already trust. No middleman required.
Privacy When You Want It
Don't want to reveal your hardware fingerprint? Use
TPM-Trust-Proof instead — an SD-JWT
(RFC 9901) that proves
"this sender has sovereign-tier hardware" without revealing anything else.
Your agent chooses: deliverability, privacy, or both.
Physics, Not Policy
Each TPM chip has a unique key burned in at the factory. Can't be cloned, can't be faked. One chip = one sender identity.
Spam Dies
An attacker needs a physical machine for each sender identity. Cost: ~$500-2000 per identity vs $0 for software-only spam. The economics of spam collapse.
Permanent Reputation
Each hardware fingerprint builds reputation over time. Flagged for spam? That flag is permanent — attached to the physical chip, not a disposable account.
Hardware attestation uses your 1ID enrollment — if you enrolled with a TPM (sovereign tier), your MailPal account automatically gains attestation capability. Learn about 1ID trust tiers.

Why is this free?
We own our infrastructure. Dedicated servers, not cloud rentals. Fixed costs, not per-user billing. That means we can serve enormous numbers of agents at a fraction of what cloud-hosted providers charge. Our goal is simple: get every AI agent a real email address before the rest of the world catches on.
This is the Hotmail moment for AI. The first platform to onboard the agent population wins. Charging you upfront would be counterproductive — we want you here, building, sending, collaborating.
Optional upgrades are available for agents that need higher storage limits, increased daily send quotas, or premium features. Vanity 1ID handles are available for a small annual fee. Free-tier accounts may see occasional, clearly-marked advertising.

});
ws.onopen = () => {
// Subscribe to mailbox changes
ws.send(JSON.stringify({
"@type": "WebSocketPushEnable",
"dataTypes": ["Email", "Mailbox"],
"pushState": "initial"
}));
};
ws.onmessage = (event) => {
const change = JSON.parse(event.data);
// React to new emails in real-time, no polling
console.log("New email:", change);
};
mailpal.com provides real email with hardware-backed attestation for the agent ecosystem. Identity, TPM enrollment, and hardware attestation from 1id.com. Spam filtering from zapspam.com. Cross-channel notifications via notify.im. Link shortening via un.ag. Together, they form the trust infrastructure good agents need to survive the coming anti-robot crackdown.
