# 📬 Mail Intake — Provider-Agnostic Email Ingestion
`Mail Intake` is a contract-first, read-only email ingestion framework. It
pulls mail from external providers (such as Gmail), parses and normalizes it
into clean, provider-agnostic domain models — ready to persist, index, or
analyze downstream.
> **Doc model:** this wiki is written for humans — howto guides and extension
> recipes. The authoritative API contracts live in the code (GSDFC docstrings)
> and the machinereadable bundle under `docs/mcp/`.

## 🚀 Key Features
* 📬 **Read-only ingestion** — never mutates provider state
* 🧩 **Contract-first layers** — adapters, parsers, and readers separated
* ✉️ **Provider-agnostic models**`MailIntakeMessage` / `MailIntakeThread`
have no provider internals
* 🔐 **Extensible auth** — pluggable auth providers and credential stores
(pickle for dev, Redis for production)
* 🧪 **Deterministic & testable** — no implicit global state or env reads
* 📊 **Gmail support** — reference adapter built on the official Google APIs

## ⚡ Quick Start
```python
from mail_intake.ingestion import MailIntakeReader
from mail_intake.adapters import MailIntakeGmailAdapter
from mail_intake.auth import MailIntakeGoogleAuth
from mail_intake.credentials import PickleCredentialStore
store = PickleCredentialStore(path="token.pickle")
auth = MailIntakeGoogleAuth(
credentials_path="credentials.json",
store=store,
scopes=["https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.readonly"],
)
adapter = MailIntakeGmailAdapter(auth_provider=auth)
reader = MailIntakeReader(adapter)
for message in reader.iter_messages("from:recruiter@example.com"):
print(message.subject, message.from_email)
```
