What is the best Email & Gmail MCP server?

Based on GitHub stars and recent activity, mcp-email-server by Wh1isper (★ 357, updated today) is the most popular actively maintained option on HookMCP, followed by google_workspace_mcp and keeper.sh. The right choice depends on whether you need write access, a hosted (remote) endpoint, or a server that runs locally without an API key.

How do I install a Email & Gmail MCP server in Claude, Cursor or VS Code?

Open the server's page on HookMCP, choose your client tab (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code or Claude Code) and copy the config — 8 of the 11 servers here have one-click install links for Cursor and VS Code. Restart your AI app and the new tools appear automatically.

Do Email & Gmail MCP servers need an API key?
