Have your OpenClaw agent send emails safely to a sandbox first instead of sending them to recipients right away.
How it works
Route your OpenClaw agent’s outgoing emails to Email Sandbox instead of real inboxes. Review what your agent sends before moving to production: no accidental sends, no leaked data.
Configure
1. Install the Mailtrap skill
Download the skill file (SKILL.md) and place it in your OpenClaw workspace’s skills directory.
2. Add the Mailtrap credentials
Include MAILTRAP_API_TOKEN and MAILTRAP_INBOX_ID in your .env and .json files and replace the placeholders with your actual credentials.
3. Verify the integration
And that’s it, your OpenClaw will, from now on, send emails to the Sandbox first. To verify the integration, have it send an email for you and see whether it landed in your Sandbox, just like so.
