# Mail Pro Get Started Guide
Welcome to Mail Pro, the AI email assistant for Microsoft 365 Copilot. Mail Pro helps you regain control of your inbox through simple, intelligent conversations, without leaving your workspace. Ask a question in plain language and Mail Pro searches, summarizes, prioritizes, and translates your Outlook email for you.
# What is Mail Pro?
Mail Pro is a secure agent for Microsoft 365 Copilot that transforms how you manage Outlook email. Instead of manually sorting or searching, you simply ask, and Mail Pro classifies, summarizes, and extracts information directly from your mailbox.
Mail Pro works in read-only mode and only accesses the signed-in user's own mailbox. It never sends, deletes, or modifies email.
# Set up Mail Pro
- 1
Add Mail Pro to Microsoft 365 Copilot
- Open Microsoft 365 Copilot.
- Browse or search the agents list and select Mail Pro.
- Open Mail Pro to start a conversation.
You can also add Mail Pro from Microsoft Teams: open Apps, search for Mail Pro, then open it with Copilot. If Mail Pro does not appear, ask your tenant admin to enable it in the Microsoft Teams admin center.

Activate Mail Pro for your organization
- The first time you use Mail Pro, you may see a card that reads Mail Pro is almost ready.
- Select Activate now, or send the activation link to the person who manages Microsoft apps in your company.
- Your admin confirms activation on the consent page. It takes about 20 seconds.
Activation is a one-time, standard Microsoft step that lets Mail Pro read your mailbox in read-only mode. Once it is done, the card disappears and every feature works right away.

Ask your first question
- Type a request in plain language, such as Give me a quick digest of my inbox.
- When prompted, confirm that Mail Pro can search your inbox.
- Review the answer, then refine it with a follow-up like only action items or more detailed.
Not sure what to ask? Select one of the built-in conversation starters to see what Mail Pro can do.
# Key features
# What Mail Pro does not do
Mail Pro is built for safe, read-only inbox intelligence. It does not:
- send email,
- delete or archive email,
- modify anything in Outlook,
- access other users' mailboxes.
Mail Pro strictly analyzes your own inbox to generate insights.
# Common setup questions
# Why do I see the "Mail Pro is almost ready" card?
This card appears when Mail Pro is installed but activation is not yet complete. Select Activate now, or forward the activation link to whoever manages Microsoft apps in your company (often the CEO, CTO, IT Manager, or Office Manager). After they confirm, the card disappears and Mail Pro returns full answers.
# Mail Pro is not answering fully. What should I check?
If you still see the activation card, your admin may not have finished the approval. If answers stop after heavy use, you may have reached your plan's action limit. See the pricing and subscription page to review or upgrade your plan.
# Where does my email data go?
Nowhere outside your environment. Your email stays within your Microsoft 365 ecosystem, hosted on Microsoft Azure in Europe and fully GDPR compliant. No data leaves your tenant, and nothing is used to train external AI models.
