User grants Grok write access to email, gets a safety warning and a heart emoji back

PTrubey gave Grok Bot MCP access to his email with write permissions. Grok proactively warned that the token could send and delete mail, saying it would only use read access. When the user replied 'yes, I trust you ;-)', the bot sent back a heart emoji — a cute moment that also shows cautious agent behavior with high-privilege credentials.
