Our reading of send0, from the data
send0 is a email MCP server from send0-dev, listed in the official MCP Registry.
Its endpoint requires sign-in or an API key just to list tools, so we haven't measured its token cost; we never use real credentials.
With 0 GitHub stars it ranks #267 of 932 email servers we index.
It runs either locally over stdio or as a hosted endpoint and needs one secret (SEND0_API_KEY); use a scoped, least-privilege key.
