The software gets a PO box

Get this, I gave one of my AIs its own email address.

Stick with me here. I’m not totally crazy.

Not so it can email people.
So it stops using mine.

Sign-up codes. Confirmations. Test mail. The little chores an agent picks up when it opens a tool.

The split:

  • My inbox stays for humans. If someone is writing to me, they still write to me.
  • The agent gets a mailbox for its own errands. A code has to land somewhere. It lands there.
  • I’m still the gatekeeper. I say yes before it opens a new login.

People get me.
The software gets a PO box.
