3.1 AgentMail Configuration

Setting up the Ears.

We use AgentMail.to because it parses messy emails into clean JSON for us.

Access AgentMail Documentation here: https://docs.agentmail.to/welcome

Step 1: Provision the Inbox

Log in to your AgentMail Dashboard.
Create a new Organization: DealTrail.
Create a new Inbox:
- Address: tc (which becomes tc@dealtrail.agentmail.to or your custom domain).
- Name: "DealTrail Central".

Step 2: Connect the Webhook

We need AgentMail to "push" emails to n8n instantly.

Open n8n.
Create a new Workflow called "01 - Ingestion Router".
Add a Webhook node.
- Method: POST.
- Path: /webhook/ingest.
- Copy the Production URL.
Go back to AgentMail.
Navigate to Webhooks settings.
Add Webhook: Paste your n8n URL.
- Events: Select message.created.

Step 3: Verify the Payload

Send a test email to your new address. In n8n, you should see a JSON object like this:

{
  "from": "agent@gmail.com",
  "subject": "Fwd: Contract for 123 Maple",
  "body": "Hi Amy, see attached.",
  "attachments": [
    {
      "filename": "RPA_123_Maple.pdf",
      "url": "https://agentmail.to/..."
    }
  ]
}

Developer Note: We use the attachments array heavily. Ensure your n8n flow downloads these files immediately as the temporary links expire.
