Fastmail just launched an MCP server at
https://api.fastmail.com/mcp— you can now point Claude (or any MCP-compatible AI client) directly at your email, calendar, and contacts.“The MCP server is simply another API endpoint for you to use, if you want to, with the AI client of your choice.”
This is exactly the right approach. No AI baked into the inbox, no vendor lock-in — just your data, your model. I’ve already got this hooked up and it works well.
If you don’t have Fastmail, you probably have slow mail.

After Magnus Carlsen, Chess Has Entered a New Age | The New Yorker
What stands out, in fact, is not Himelfarb’s illumination of the mechanics of chess but his insights regarding the psychologies of people. The ones he follows closely are so stamped by their differences that they become almost a full array of archetypes. (Almost—there are, notably, no women among the contenders.) There is the lamb-like dreamer, Wesley So, and the trollish Hikaru Nakamura, who believes that his unprecedented success as a streamer has secured him a greater legacy than any prestigious chess title would. Carlsen, whose continued presence in the chess world shadows the hunt for a new king, is aggressive in asserting his opinions. (In 2022, Carlsen announced that he would no longer contend for the world championship, but he participates in other tournaments, usually with faster time controls, and often wins.) The true feelings of Anish Giri, in contrast, are “obscured by a fog of irony.” Fabiano Caruana, a precise, brilliant American forever on the precipice of a world title, is described as a kind of “scientist,” while Ding, who plummeted into a depression after winning the world championship in 2023, has a sensitive, poetic soul.

When Your Digital Life Vanishes | The New Yorker
The value of a person’s data is negatively correlated with whether or not they have it. Once they have it, it really wasn’t worth anything. But, if they don’t have it, it’s worth an arm and a leg and their children.”
