Agent email address
The deliverable address assigned to an AI agent, like name-id@mailgent.dev — the handle other systems and people use to reach it by email.
An agent email address is the specific, deliverable address that belongs to an AI agent. In Mailgent it looks like a friendly name with a short unique id at the domain — for example bright-otter-k3f9@mailgent.dev — so each agent has a distinct, real address.
It's what makes the agent reachable. People reply to it, services send verification links to it, and the agent sends from it with full authentication.
Why the id suffix
The short id keeps addresses unique and unguessable while staying human-readable. Two agents named 'support' don't collide, and the address doesn't leak a predictable pattern that could be abused.
The friendly part makes it recognizable in a thread, so a person replying sees something sensible rather than a random string.
A real address, fully authenticated
The address is deliverable, with DKIM and SPF handled by the platform, so mail the agent sends lands in the inbox and mail it receives is genuine. It behaves like any person's address — because to the rest of the world, it is one.
