    note: SMTP2GO does not publish a single fetchable OpenAPI URL; the ReadMe registry path answers 429 to non-browser clients. The provider's own remote MCP server returns the authoritative OpenAPI 3.1.0 fragment for each endpoint anonymously, and those 73 fragments are merged here without modification.
