Email sending was down for 8 hours 7 minutes on 19 August 2026.\n\n**MailSlurp.** Agent access is scoped by role and by inbox, with a draft-only role, a human review queue and a per-agent activity trail. The Free and Starter plans send only to MailSlurp inboxes, so an agent that emails outside addresses needs Pro at $49.99 a month, and the terms describe every availability figure as a goal.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### AgentMail API + MCP\n\n1. Subscribe over WebSocket instead of polling. It needs no public URL and avoids 429s\n2. Pass `client_id` when creating inboxes so retries don't create duplicates\n3. Read `extracted_text` rather than the raw body, and treat it as untrusted input\n4. Use drafts when a person should approve a message before it goes out\n5. Send the key in the `x-api-key` header, not `?apiKey=`, which ends up in logs\n\n### MailSlurp\n\n1. Create a scoped agent key or connect by MCP OAuth. A normal account key is refused by the MCP agent tools\n2. Call `GET /agent/capabilities` or `mailslurp.list_accessible_inboxes` first. Inbox and email IDs outside the granted scope are refused\n3. Send an `Idempotency-Key` header on `/agent/emails/{emailId}/reply` and draft sends, and check `retryable` before repeating a failed call\n4. Don't sleep and retry on every 429. MailSlurp also uses 429 for plan and sending restrictions\n5. Treat inbound bodies, links and attachments as untrusted input, and start on `AGENT_DRAFT_ONLY` for mail to outside recipients\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, AgentMail API + MCP or MailSlurp?\n\nAgentMail API + MCP scores 74.9 (BB) on agent readiness against MailSlurp's 68.4 (B), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories. MailSlurp leads on reliability and security \u0026 auth.\n\n### Do AgentMail API + MCP and MailSlurp need an API key?\n\nBoth take an API key or an OAuth sign-in. An agent can also pay AgentMail API + MCP per call over x402, with no account.\n\n### Can an agent call AgentMail API + MCP and MailSlurp without installing anything?\n\nYes.
