The application Postage allows users to connect their Gmail accounts to Anthropic's Claude AI on a Mac. This connection requires users to generate a Google app password, which Postage then uses to access Gmail via IMAP and SMTP protocols. Once configured, Claude Desktop or Claude Code can read emails, attachments, and threads, with access levels ranging from read-only to full control over organization and drafting, though permanent deletion and sending are restricted.
