Dynamic allow/block lists for AI email agents without redeploy
Nylas introduces Lists and Rules on its control plane, letting non-engineers update allow/block domains for AI email agents without code changes. Rules evaluate inbound and outbound mail against typed lists, with changes taking effect immediately across all agents. The system fails closed on infrastructure errors, blocking messages rather than letting them through.
