## Exfil surface

No private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound path in this server alone: no tool is tagged outbound.

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | `mcp__receivemail__list_messages` `mcp__receivemail__wait_for_email` |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | `mcp__receivemail__list_messages` `mcp__receivemail__wait_for_email` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (1)

Creates or changes something that can be changed back. Claude Code: ask.

### `create_mailbox`

- The name "create_mailbox" says "create": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Create a disposable receivemail.dev email address that receives real mail. Returns address, expiresAt and secret; keep the secret to read the mailbox. Free without a key (up to 60 minutes); with a paid key on the MCP connection, up to 1440 minutes and an extracted otp field on messages.
```

## Only reads (2)

Looks things up and changes nothing. Claude Code: allow.

### `list_messages`

- The name "list_messages" says "list": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The name "list_messages" says "list" and "message": it reads messages. The description's first sentence says "list" and "email": it reads mail. The input names a secret (input.secret), and the tool reads: it reads secrets.
- Tag untrusted-input: The name "list_messages" says "list" and "message": it reads messages, which other people can write. The description's first sentence says "list" and "email": it reads inbound email, which other people can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the last 50 emails received by a mailbox made with create_mailbox, newest first.
```

### `wait_for_email`

- The name "wait_for_email" says "wait": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The name "wait_for_email" says "wait" and "email": it reads mail. The description's first sentence says "wait" and "email": it reads mail. The input names a secret (input.secret), and the tool reads: it reads secrets.
- Tag untrusted-input: The name "wait_for_email" says "wait" and "email": it reads inbound email, which other people can write. The description's first sentence says "wait" and "email": it reads inbound email, which other people can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Wait up to 25 seconds for an email to a mailbox made with create_mailbox. Returns {timed_out:false, message:{from_address, subject, body_text, received_at}} or {timed_out:true}; call again on timeout. Pass `since` (ISO 8601) to ignore mail you've already seen.
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `receivemail`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__receivemail__wait_for_email",
      "mcp__receivemail__list_messages"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__receivemail__create_mailbox"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

Capability tags behind the rules (a read tagged outbound is asked about):

- `mcp__receivemail__wait_for_email`: private-data, untrusted-input
- `mcp__receivemail__list_messages`: private-data, untrusted-input
