Mailbox
Read, reply to, and send email from your workspace
The Mailbox is a threaded email client inside Helm. Read conversations, compose new messages, and reply, with AI agents able to draft replies for you to approve. For drip campaigns, see Sequences.
Folders
- Inbox - Conversations with an incoming message
- Sent - Conversations you've sent
- Drafts - Saved drafts, including ones agents wrote for approval
Filter by All, Unread, or Needs approval, narrow by sender identity, and search by subject or participant.
Composing & Replying
- Click New message.
- Pick the From identity, then enter To, Subject, and Body.
- Click Send. Drafts autosave as you type.
Open a conversation and use the reply box at the bottom to respond; replies thread back into the same conversation.
Agent-Drafted Replies
An agent assigned to a sender identity can draft a reply for you. The draft appears on the conversation with the agent's reasoning, and you can Approve & send, Reject, or Edit with agent before it goes out. Email is never sent automatically; a person always approves.
Receiving Mail
Inbound mail reaches your Mailbox through a forwarding rule on your own email address, set up when you connect a domain. The Mailbox isn't a full IMAP client and doesn't import old mail; it threads conversations going forward.
Sending Setup
To send, connect and verify a sending domain in Settings → Email Domains, then add a sender identity on it (a shared workspace identity or a personal one you claim). You can bind an agent to an identity so it can draft from that address. Helm tracks bounces and complaints, keeps a suppression list, and pauses a domain that crosses safe thresholds.
Plan Availability
Email is included on every paid plan. See Plans & Pricing.
