Introduction
The Email Tool enables your AI agent to send email messages to users or system addresses as part of its automated actions. This can be used to notify users, send confirmations, or forward AI-generated content via email.
It operates as a post-response tool, meaning the AI can generate content or instructions, and this tool is responsible for delivering it through email using configured SMTP settings.
