Of course the code is similar, it was a port. What did we call them? A "surfed" mod. It was never officially released.
The big differences were:
Used AceHook and AceEvent
Removed all SavedVariables
Combined the two mods into one, the bulkmail and inbox mods.
Updated a few other things.
So no, it wasn't just a copy and paste port. If you read the first post in this thread it makes it clear thats exactly what this mod was. I'm just sad it was removed without even a PM on this forum or something giving notice. I could have added more attribution upon request.
To me this whole discussion is pure nonsense. At least hundreds of addons are basically copies of another addon. And don't forget there are functions which can't be solved in another way. Since the API sometimes suck each author have to code stuff similar. I also sometimes did copy and paste things in my addons, tried to change or improve them .. but sometimes you just can't. Well, this is no crime. Many people are using code from WoWWiki... why should they change it? As long as anyone give credit to me or my code or my ideas, I'm very fine with that. And to all the people fighting for Cide's right - let him do this himself. There's nothing I hate more than people who can't code shit and bitch at someone else .. really, noone needs your comments. Grennon, if I was you I'd lock down this thread.

Replying to my own post here, combining the inbox and bulkmail mods was a naive mistake and gained nothing really. If I republish this mod on my guilds site it will have them split so you can comment whichever you dont like out.
