Read mail delivered to an inbox from create_inbox — e.g. to pull a verification code or confirmation link out of a signup email. Returns newest-first. Mail usually lands within seconds; if the response is empty, wait a few seconds and call again (there is no blocking wait). Extract the code or link yourself and continue the flow in the browser. Pass format="html" when you are AUDITING the email rather than reading a code out of it: the default text view flattens away the layout, typography and branding, which is exactly what an email audit is judging.
Input schema
| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| address | string | yes | The inbox address from create_inbox. |
| format | string | no | "text" (default) flattens each message to readable text — right for pulling a code or link. "html" returns the raw HTML part instead, for auditing the email as a rendered artifact: write it to a file, open it in the browser, and screenshot it. |
| inbox_token | string | yes | The inbox_token from create_inbox (authorizes reading). |
