# Mermail Forward Email

> Mermail Forward Email is a paid API for AI agents from console.mermail.app, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-11).

Forwards a specific email from an AI agent's Mermail mailbox to one or more recipients, optionally with CC/BCC, custom sender, body, and threading metadata.

## Facts

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability mermail-forward-email-59eae8af -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Forward the email I just received in my Mermail inbox (mailbox abc123, email id msg456) to support@mycompany.com and CC billing@mycompany.com, keeping the original subject line and body.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when your AI agent has already received an email in a Mermail mailbox and needs to relay or forward that message — including its thread context — to another address. Prefer this over a generic send endpoint when you need to preserve threading metadata (in_reply_to, references, thread_id) or forward an existing email object by its ID rather than composing a brand-new message from scratch.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid mailboxId or emailId returns 404 not found
- Malformed or missing 'to' address causes a 422 validation error
- Unauthorized access to the mailbox returns 401 or 403
- Duplicate client_send_id may be rejected or deduplicated silently
- Attachment objects with missing fields may cause send failure
- Payment not fulfilled (x402) results in 402 Payment Required
