Public-flip audit: scrub Sulkta-internal refs + Browserless IPs + add LICENSE

Repository URL → git.sulkta.com. Drop Lucy Browserless IPs from tool doc-strings
(replaced with abstract 'sandboxed headless browser' guidance). Drop sibling-repo
cross-references, kayos@/cobb@ mailbox examples in tool descriptions, vault
pointers. Generalize config.example.toml + README to neutral hosts. Add LICENSE
(MIT — Cargo.toml already declared it).

Tests still green. No behavior change.

+10 MCP tools. Multi-account. Attachment-safe.
-
-## Why a server, not a CLI
-
-`kayos_mail.py` shipped without `Date` or `Message-ID` headers until a 2026-05-18 patch — exactly the kind of header-discipline regression a typed Rust server prevents at compile time. The "no spam bin" framing is mostly upstream of any client (Rackham postfix + rspamd DKIM-sign at the relay; mail-tester scored 10/10 and port25 SpamAssassin −7.31 on 2026-05-20), but a correct client doesn't trip filters with bad MIME structure, broken threading, or missing headers.
 
 ## Tools
 
 - `mail_send` — `account?`, `to`, `cc[]?`, `bcc[]?`, `subject`, `body`, `body_html?`, `attachments[]?`, `in_reply_to?`, `references[]?`. Returns `{message_id, sent_at}`.
 - `mail_inbox_list` — newest-first listing. `account?`, `since?` (YYYY-MM-DD), `unread_only?`, `limit?` (default 50, max 500), `folder?` (default INBOX). Uses `BODY.PEEK` so it does not toggle `\Seen`.
-- `mail_inbox_read` — fetch one message by UID. `account?`, `uid`, `folder?`, `format?` (`text`|`html`|`raw_eml`). Attachment payloads NOT inlined — only `{filename, mime_type, size}` metadata. RFC822.SIZE pre-flight rejects messages > 20 MB.
+- `mail_inbox_read` — fetch one message by UID. `account?`, `uid`, `folder?`, `format?` (`text` | `html` | `raw_eml`). Attachment payloads are not inlined — only `{filename, mime_type, size}` metadata. RFC822.SIZE pre-flight rejects messages > 20 MB.
 - `mail_folder_list` — `account?`. Enumerates IMAP mailboxes. Returns `[{name, delimiter, attributes, selectable}]`.
-- `mail_search` — raw IMAP SEARCH passthrough. `account?`, `query`, `folder?`, `limit?`. CR/LF + `{N}` literal-form rejected.
+- `mail_search` — raw IMAP SEARCH passthrough. `account?`, `query`, `folder?`, `limit?`. CR/LF and `{N}` literal-form are rejected.
 - `mail_thread` — `account?`, `message_id`, `folder?`, `limit?`. Seed Message-ID → matches seed + any message whose `References` / `In-Reply-To` contains the seed. Oldest-first.
 - `mail_move` — `account?`, `uid`, `from_folder?`, `to_folder`. UID MOVE (RFC 6851) with COPY + STORE + EXPUNGE fallback.
-- `mail_mark` — `account?`, `uid`, `action` (`read`/`unread`/`flagged`/`unflagged`/`trash`/`archive`), `folder?`. Toggles `\Seen` / `\Flagged` via UID STORE; `trash` MOVEs to Trash; `archive` errors (no canonical Archive folder on Sulkta Dovecot — use `mail_move`).
+- `mail_mark` — `account?`, `uid`, `action` (`read` / `unread` / `flagged` / `unflagged` / `trash` / `archive`), `folder?`. `archive` errors out — stock Dovecot has no canonical Archive folder.
-- `mail_attachment_get` — `account?`, `uid`, `attachment_index`, `folder?`. Fetches the N-th attachment (index matches `mail_inbox_read.attachments[]`) as base64.
+- `mail_attachment_get` — `account?`, `uid`, `attachment_index`, `folder?`. Fetches the N-th attachment as base64.
 - `mail_reply` — `account?`, `uid`, `body`, `body_html?`, `attachments?`, `reply_all?`, `to_override?`, `folder?`. Pulls original to build `In-Reply-To` + `References` + `Re: ` subject prefix.
 
-## Headers we guarantee on outbound

 ## Safety
 
-`mail_inbox_read` returns attacker-controlled bytes. **Do NOT auto-fetch URLs found in inbound mail** — web beacons confirm read and links may be phishing. Default deny on every URL; wait for explicit per-link authorization. Authorized fetches route through Browserless (`192.168.0.5:3030` direct or `:3031` PIA-routed exit), never `WebFetch` or `curl` from the host. `mail_attachment_get` bytes get the same treatment — don't execute, render, or open them blindly.
