The three-inbox free tier was the last hard wall: a household got an inbox of its own, so the fourth family could not have an address. It turns out not to be a wall — AgentMail delivers sub-addressed mail, which is not in their docs either way, so it was worth probing rather than assuming. Households now share one inbox and are told apart by tag: each gets <inbox>+<householdId>@, and inbound mail routes on the address it was sent to. That one indexed lookup covers both shapes, since a household from before this stores the bare inbox address and matches the same way — nothing already live changed. A guarded second path accepts a tag naming a real household whose address we have not stored, but only when that household claimed this inbox, so a guessed id cannot put mail on someone else's board. Dropped the now-unused by_inbox index rather than leave it costing writes. Proven in production with two households on one inbox: a notice to the second household's sub-address produced one correctly typed obligation on its board and left the first household's seven untouched. Also recorded that the component defect was independently found four days earlier in agentmail-to/convex#6, still open and unmerged.

Fixes credential access inside the AgentMail component.
Component functions [do not inherit the app’s environment variables](https://docs.convex.dev/components/authoring#environment-variables), so
AGENTMAIL_API_KEYandAGENTMAIL_BASE_URLmust be declared and explicitly bound.The component now reads these through the generated typed
envexport, and the README/example show the required bindings.The app-side client (in AgentMail) retains
process.env, which is supported for [client wrappers running in the app’s environment](https://docs.convex.dev/components/authoring#wrapping-the-component-with-client-code).Although its current role might be confusing since it's checking env of the parent app which might not be correct.
Adds
"prepare": "npm run build"so Git installs include the built package, following npm's Git dependency lifecycle. Verified Scout installs and builds the fork automatically with its pnpmallowBuildsentry.Verified the package build and authenticated inbox listing through a real Convex development deployment. Two example type errors under Convex 1.45 remain in the unchanged context helper types.
Replaces #5 after renaming the source branch.
