## Introduction

Claude is Anthropic's AI assistant, available on the web, in the desktop app, and on mobile. Cowork is its agent for knowledge work, and it runs on all of those surfaces too. Connected to your apps, Claude can work with your files and services to accomplish complex tasks on your behalf.
This guide walks you through the easiest and most secure way to connect your Smtp2go account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to search for bounced emails this week, add marketing@mydomain.com as allowed sender, list all verified sender domains, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security.
Setup is the same on Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork, and you only need to do it once. The connector is tied to your account, so it's available in all three.

## What is the Smtp2go MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Smtp2go MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Smtp2go account. It provides structured and secure access to your email sending and management infrastructure, so your agent can perform actions like searching email activity, managing allowed senders, updating sender domains, and controlling IP allow lists on your behalf.
- Comprehensive email activity search: Ask your agent to filter and retrieve email events such as sends, opens, clicks, and bounces by recipient, date, or message ID.
- Allowed sender management: Have your agent add, update, remove, or view allowed sender email addresses to control who can send emails from your account.
- Sender domain configuration: Let the agent register new sender domains for SPF/DKIM verification and manage domain-related settings seamlessly.
- IP allow list control: Direct your agent to add or remove IP addresses or CIDR ranges in your account’s IP allow list, enhancing security for sending sources.
- Email delivery monitoring: Enable your agent to search and analyze sent emails, helping you monitor delivery, troubleshoot issues, and ensure reliable communication.

## Troubleshooting

### 1. Why does Claude not use the Composio connector for Smtp2go?

The connector can show as connected, but Claude must use it in each Smtp2go conversation.
- Click + at the lower left of the chat, or type /.
- Hover Connectors.
- Turn on Composio.
- Ask Claude to connect to Smtp2go again.

### 2. Why does Claude show an MCP server error before Smtp2go connects?

Claude can show Couldn't reach the MCP server or Authorization with the MCP server failed when you add the connector for Smtp2go.
- Check that the connector URL is https://connect.composio.dev/mcp.
- Connectors run from Anthropic's cloud, so your device network is usually not the problem.
- Add the connector again from Customize > Connectors, then ask Claude to connect Smtp2go.
- If it fails again, send the error and the ofid_ reference id to support@composio.dev.

### 3. Why does the Smtp2go authorization link not work?

The Composio connector is one server. Your Smtp2go account connects separately when Claude asks for it.
- If the browser does not open, or the link expires, ask Claude to retry the Smtp2go connection.
- Composio creates a fresh Smtp2go authorization link.
- Open that link in your browser and finish the Smtp2go sign-in.

### 4. Why do Smtp2go actions fail after they worked before?

The Smtp2go connection can expire or lose permission.
- Ask Claude to inspect the Smtp2go connection.
- If the connection is unhealthy, disconnect it when Claude prompts you.
- Reconnect the Smtp2go account and retry the action.
- If Claude shows a permission prompt, approve it before Claude changes data in Smtp2go.
- If the action still fails with a permission error, check that the connected account has that permission in Smtp2go itself.

### 5. How do I switch to a different Smtp2go account?

Claude can manage the Smtp2go connection for you.
- Ask Claude to disconnect or delete the current Smtp2go account.
- Ask Claude to connect Smtp2go again.
- Open the new Composio authorization link for Smtp2go.
- Sign in with the other Smtp2go account in the browser.
- After the account connects, ask Claude to retry the Smtp2go task.

### 6. Why is my Smtp2go connection missing in Claude Desktop or on a Team plan?

The connector belongs to your Claude account, so your Smtp2go connection works in Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork.
- In Claude Desktop, open Customize > Connectors.
- Next to Composio, click ⋮ and click Clear cache.
- If Smtp2go tools still do not appear, click ⋮, disconnect, remove the connector, and add it again.
- On Team or Enterprise, an Owner or Primary Owner must enable the connector before you can connect Smtp2go.

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The Smtp2go MCP server connects Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork to your Smtp2go account through Composio. Once connected, Claude can use the available Smtp2go tools and triggers to complete tasks on your behalf.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Smtp2go MCP?

With a standalone Smtp2go MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Smtp2go tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Smtp2go and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Claude Cowork?

Yes, you can. Claude Cowork fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Smtp2go tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Smtp2go while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Smtp2go scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Smtp2go data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
