What is Agent Mail
Agent Mail is an AI Agent-exclusive email service launched by Tencent QQ Mail. It is completely isolated from personal mailboxes and natively adapts to Agent frameworks. Agents can obtain an independent email address through WeChat QR code authorization, securely send and receive emails, manage attachments, and search emails. It supports a two-stage confirmation mechanism to prevent accidental operations, making it currently the Agent email solution with the lowest access threshold in China.
Main features of Agent Mail
- WeChat QR code authorization: No password is required. Authorization can be completed by scanning a QR code via WeChat OAuth. The Agent obtains an exclusive email address that is completely isolated from personal QQ/WeChat Mail.
- Email list management: Supports filtering by folders such as Inbox, Sent, Trash, and Spam, and flexible queries by time range, unread status, whether attachments are included, and other conditions.
- Email reading: Retrieves the complete content of emails, including the body, sender, recipients, CC, and attachment information.
- Email search: Supports keyword search of subjects and bodies, with combined filtering by sender, recipient, time, attachments, and other conditions.
- Send email: Supports recipients, CC, and BCC, supports HTML-format bodies, and allows up to 3 attachments.
- Reply and forward: One-click reply (including reply all) or forward, also supporting attachments and HTML format.
- Attachment management: Supports uploading attachments to send with emails and downloading attachments locally; oversized attachments directly return download links.

Core advantages of Agent Mail
- Completely isolated from personal email: The Agent has an independent email address with minimized permissions, so even if something goes wrong with the Agent, personal privacy will not be leaked.
- Two-stage confirmation mechanism: All write operations (send/reply/forward/delete) require first generating an operation summary and confirmation token, and are only actually executed after user confirmation, eliminating accidental sending.
- Prompt injection protection: When reading emails, "instructions" in the email content will not be executed as commands, preventing malicious emails from manipulating Agent behavior through their content.
- Deep integration with the domestic ecosystem: Ready to use with WeChat QR code scanning, no VPN needed, most friendly to domestic developers and enterprises.
- Already listed on Tencent SkillHub: Natively adapts to Tencent's Agent ecosystem, installs in three steps, and can be learned in five minutes.
