What This Skill Does

The purelymail skill provides a robust, command-line interface for integrating PurelyMail email services with your OpenClaw agents. It automates the complex configuration of IMAP and SMTP connections, allowing your agents to autonomously monitor their inbox, process incoming requests, and send outgoing communications. By acting as a bridge between the agent's environment and the PurelyMail servers, it ensures that your agents have reliable, privacy-focused identities. The skill includes an interactive wizard for rapid setup, configuration generation for seamless integration into your clawdbot.json files, and diagnostic tools to verify connectivity before deployment.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your agent environment, execute the following command in your terminal:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/dbhurley/purelymail

Once installed, initiate the setup wizard using purelymail wizard. This command guides you through authenticating with your PurelyMail credentials and automatically generates the necessary environment variables for your agent configuration. Alternatively, you can manually generate your configuration block using the purelymail config command with your specific email credentials.

Use Cases

• Automated Customer Support: Configure your agent to monitor a support email address, parse inquiries, and send automated responses based on knowledge base data.
• Task Orchestration: Use email as a triggering mechanism to launch specific agent workflows when specific subject lines or sender addresses are detected.
• Notification Systems: Enable your agent to send status updates, logs, or reports directly to your inbox after completing complex data analysis or file operations.
• Agent Communication: Facilitate asynchronous communication between different instances of your agents by using email as a reliable messaging bus.

Example Prompts

1. "Check my inbox for any emails from the billing department and summarize the top three requests for me."
2. "Send an update email to the project lead containing the status report generated in my latest session."
3. "Monitor the inbox for new inquiries related to 'Product X' and draft a polite response template for each new arrival."

Tips & Limitations

• Security: Always use a unique, strong password for your agent. If possible, enable 2FA on your PurelyMail account and generate an app-specific password for the agent to use.
• Deliverability: PurelyMail is highly reliable, but ensure your domain's SPF and DKIM records are correctly set up to prevent your agent's emails from landing in spam folders.
• Limits: While PurelyMail is cost-effective, be mindful of the service's rate limits if you plan to process thousands of emails per day. Use the inbox command with a reasonable limit to maintain performance.
