When you open mcp-server for the first time, you will need to connect your email account. You can do this by entering the following information:

- **Incoming Mail Server (IMAP or POP3)**

## 🔒 Security Notes

mcp-server connects to your email using secure protocols (IMAP, SMTP with TLS). Your login information stays on your computer and is not shared externally. 

Always use strong, unique passwords to protect your accounts. If you connect with an app password supplied by your email provider, it adds an extra layer of security.

  Make sure your Windows is up to date. Run the installer as an administrator by right-clicking and selecting "Run as administrator."

- **Can't connect to email:**  
  Double-check your server settings and credentials. Ensure your email provider supports third-party connections.

- **AI assistant not responding:**
