Muse Mail gives Meta’s Muse agent its own @muse.ai email address. You can forward emails to it, add it to a thread or ask Muse to email people for you, with approval prompts before it acts. It launched November 10, 2026 for paid subscribers in the US and Canada, and it does not open your personal inbox to Muse.

What Muse Mail adds
Muse is Meta’s personal AI agent. Muse can already work with Gmail, Outlook or another inbox through Connectors. On November 10, 2026, the official Muse account announced on X that “Your Muse can now send and receive emails on your behalf.”
Meta’s help article About Muse email addresses explains how it works:
- Your Muse gets its own @muse.ai address, separate from your personal email account.
- You can forward selected emails to Muse to share information, or ask it to handle tasks by email.
- Meta’s examples include contacting a restaurant about a reservation, coordinating plans and following up on a refund.
- You can review sent and received emails in Muse and ask about a task’s progress.
- You can change the sender name that recipients see in the email settings.
People who get mail from your Muse can reply from their usual email account. Meta says they do not need a Muse account.
Availability and plans
Muse Mail launched for paid subscribers in the US and Canada, according to the Muse announcement. On November 11, Meta’s Chief AI Officer Alexandr Wang posted that it “will be out to everyone soon including free plans” and encouraged paid subscribers to reserve their @muse.ai handle.
Meta’s Muse subscriptions page lists the paid plans. Meta has not announced a separate charge for Muse Mail.
| Plan | Price | Weekly Muse usage | Muse Mail (Nov 12, 2026) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | Usage limit that refreshes | Not yet; announced as coming soon |
| Power | $20/month | 500M Muse tokens per week | Yes, in the US and Canada |
| Maximum | $100/month | 3B Muse tokens per week | Yes, in the US and Canada |
Meta notes that Muse and its subscriptions are in limited testing and are not available in every location.
Muse Mail vs. email Connectors
The main difference is whose mailbox is involved. Muse Mail is the agent’s own address. A Gmail or Outlook Connector links Muse to your existing account. Meta’s help article draws the line clearly:
| Question | Muse Mail (@muse.ai) | Gmail or Outlook Connector |
|---|---|---|
| Whose address sends the email? | Your agent’s @muse.ai address | Your own connected account |
| Can Muse read your personal inbox? | No | Yes, within the permissions you grant |
| How does mail reach Muse? | You forward it, add Muse to a thread, or others write to it | Muse reads the connected mailbox |
| Best for | Delegated tasks, such as bookings and follow-ups | Managing your own email |
How to set up Muse Mail and send an email
These steps combine Meta’s help article with the Muse getting-started post. Labels may differ while the feature rolls out.
- Open Muse, tap your avatar and go to the Mail tab. You can also ask your Muse to set up an email address and follow the instructions in the app.
- Tell Muse who to email and what to do. Meta’s example: “Email this restaurant and ask whether they have a table for four on Friday at 7 p.m.”
- When Muse asks for approval, review the email details and choose to allow or deny the action.
- If something looks wrong, deny the action and tell Muse in Chat what to change.
- To bring Muse into an existing conversation, add its address to the thread or forward it an email.
Verified external addresses
You can add an email address you own and verify it with Muse. Meta says this lets Muse recognize instructions sent from that address as coming from you. It does not give Muse access to that inbox.
Once verified, you can send or forward mail to your Muse’s address without opening the app. Meta’s example is forwarding a newsletter with an event invitation and asking Muse to “RSVP for this event and add it to my calendar.”
Meta’s safety guide for external addresses warns that anyone with access to that account can send your Muse instructions. Use a personal account only you can access, with a strong password and two-step verification.
To remove an address, open Muse Settings, find your list of added email addresses and remove the one you no longer want.
Power-user workflows
Set boundaries in the request. Meta suggests instructions such as “Ask about availability, but don’t confirm a booking or share my phone number.”
Tune approvals. Under Settings, then Permissions, Meta’s guidance and approval article describes two defaults: Ask for some actions and Always ask. Approval prompts offer Allow once, Allow for this task, Allow for this site, Always allow and Deny. Start strict for email, because Meta notes a sent email cannot be reversed.
Audit activity. Tap your assistant icon to open the Activity log.
Keep personal and agent mail apart. Use the @muse.ai address for delegated errands and a Connector only when Muse truly needs your own inbox. For more Muse features, see our guides to Muse Spaces, Muse Ember and Muse Wonder. Developers can also read our Muse Spark Open guide.
Limits, privacy and safety
- Sending limits: Meta says limits apply to emails from @muse.ai addresses. The address is meant for individual messages and delegated tasks, not bulk campaigns.
- Sensitive topics: Muse may refuse email requests about financial information, health information and credentials. Meta says Muse Mail asks for approval even for emails to yourself on these topics. Do not email Muse bank details, medical records, passwords or sign-in codes.
- Deleting mail: You can delete individual emails, but Muse may still remember what it learned. Ask Muse to forget a topic if needed. Deletion does not remove other recipients’ copies.
- Losing the address: Deleting the address, resetting Muse or deleting your account removes the address and its emails. New mail to it becomes undeliverable.
- Data use: Depending on your settings, information from Muse emails may be used to improve Meta’s AI models.

Frequently asked questions
What is Muse Mail?
Muse Mail gives your Meta Muse agent its own @muse.ai email address. Meta says the address is separate from your personal email, so you can forward selected emails to Muse or ask it to handle tasks by email, such as contacting a restaurant or following up on a refund.
Who can use Muse Mail right now?
Meta’s Muse account announced on November 10, 2026 that Muse Mail is available to paid subscribers in the US and Canada. Meta’s Chief AI Officer Alexandr Wang said on November 11 that it will reach everyone soon, including free plans, but no date was given.
Does Muse Mail give Muse access to my Gmail or Outlook inbox?
No. Meta says setting up the @muse.ai address does not give Muse access to your Gmail, Outlook or other inbox. Reading your own mailbox requires a separate Connector, and verifying an external address only lets Muse recognize instructions you send from it.
Will Muse send emails without asking me?
Muse may ask for approval before it acts, in line with the permissions you set under Settings, then Permissions. When it asks, you can allow or deny the email. Meta notes that a sent email cannot be reversed, so review each request carefully.
What happens if I delete my Muse email address?
Meta says you lose access to the @muse.ai address, emails sent and received through it are deleted, and new emails sent to it become undeliverable. The same applies if you reset Muse or delete your account.
