I'm just not seeing why anyone would buy a paid plan for this when they could buy a domain for <$10, and throw something like MXRoute or one of the numerous mailserver Docker scripts behind it. Then their LLM can make as many inboxes as they need without paying anything. The same thing could get bundled by the people who sell preconfigured OpenClaw VMs.

For a home user not even willing to do/pay for that, do they really need a whole API for making inboxes? Couldn't they just set up a second Gmail for LLMs and then put the password in their agent's memory?

This is like saying - 'I don't understand why anybody would ever buy a pizza from a store. All you have to do is get some flour, water, tomato sauce, cheese, mix the flour and water together, whip the dough, add tomato sauce, put cheese on top of it, cook it for 20 minutes, and then serve it.'

So __much__ value is in the fact things are easy. Money is __not__ the most valuable thing in the world.
