Just got the latest version and when i tick only the items i want to collect from my mailbox and select open they get returned to the sender i have to shift click an item if i want it to go to my mail box.
Lucky enough i was sending from one toon to another no idea what would have happend if the mails were from the ah, trying a previous version to see if the problems still there

Is it too hard to implement something like "left click on an item to 'auto-send' it to one on your black book list, as soon as i came nearby -- or click on -- a mailbox", and block this item to be sold to vendor.
Postal seems to be blocking trades all the time , not just when the mail frame is open.
No error message comes up or anything I just get the trade refused message all the time.
I just got back from holiday but this was on my todo list. There is a condition where it will keep blocking trades. I have the snippet of code to fix it as well. I checked how Lexan did this. See, when Im testing I frequently reloadui and wind up with trades off after doing so because it doesn't check. Here is the relevant code from Lexan to show whats happening.
function Lexan:AntiTrade_ON()
if ( GetCVar("BlockTrades") == "0" ) and ( not self.TradesBlockedByUser ) then
self:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_LEAVING_WORLD", "AntiTrade_OFF")
SetCVar("BlockTrades", "1")
self.TradesBlockedByMod = true
end
end
function Lexan:AntiTrade_OFF()
if ( self.TradesBlockedByMod ) then
self:UnregisterEvent("PLAYER_LEAVING_WORLD") -- We don't need it anymore for now
SetCVar("BlockTrades", "0")
self.TradesBlockedByMod = false
end
end

Aha, that's why noone can trade me.
You just open your interface options and turn off "block trades" until the fix goes in. Sorry bout that.
Since this is modular (& Ace2), it would be a lot better if the user could change the modules active via the command line. Entering /postal in the command line currently only brings up the standard Ace2 Profile, About & Standby (with which you can turn on or off the whole thing) options. Nothing else.
The only way to completely disable parts of this currently are to either disable the whole mod or manually delete each LUA prior to logon.
Speaking of which, since my last big problem with this mod, I'm only using the BlackBook, Rake & Wire modules (& previously TradeBlock before it became buggy). Any word if the odd, unexpected behavior in collecting mails via the Select module I reported there have been resolved yet? That module has been updated since then, but I'm not risking this deleting/messing up collecting mails again till it for sure has been resolved.
It should have a quick toggle button in the mail pane to switch it on or off.
Some people prefer to take mails out of their mailbox without stacking them because they want to sell it (again) on the ah so it would be nifty if you can change the setting on the fly.
As Do I. I think they ought to Merge them and work on 1 Complete Mail Addon!
Otherwise I might go Postal on the Postman! LOL.
I don't see the need for this. Blackbook is a better paradigm than Mailto: in my opinion. I've been looking at mail tracking and I am not really happy with how Mailto did that either. Something like a minimap icon that displays a tablet with your current mails tracked in it is better than chat window spam in my opinion.
Most of this is moot until I get burned out grinding my heroic keys. Anyone is free to write a tracking module for Postal though. Its a pretty open system.
I want to do things differently and better which is why I started writing Postal after my dissatisfaction with GMail (being a CT_Mailmod port). I think the Mailto designs can be re-implemented better (like Blackbook) rather than just rewritten in ace.
This takes work though, the reason there isn't a bulkmail UI is because figuring out a better way to do it is harder than re-writing an existing way of doing things.
The last stab I was working on for a bulkmail UI was just opening a tablet displaying a list of the items with counts you were alt-clicking on. The idea was to discourage an interactive GUI. I think its a good idea and Ill get back to work on it once I'm done getting some BC keying goals met. Of course, the postal module system makes it where anyone else could take their own stab at it as well.
Here is the vision for this:
If user opens the sendmail frame and has the module enabled and alt clicks an item, an entry is added to a table of items to be sent and a tablet is only opened then (no screen clutter until the user says so) displaying the table with Clear, Send, Stop links.
Clear of course clears the table. Send registers the mail sent event and sets a counter. When mail sent occurs it processes the next mail in the counter. Stop would be clear+unregistering mail sent if its registered.
This is actually not that complex of a module, it just needs time I don't have right now. It would also need to add a function to the PostalLib for IsItemMailable that can be shared with other modules probably.
when i use the "Open all" button to open all the mails in mailbox, the mail icon indicating if you have still mail in mailbox is still showing after the mailbox window is closed.
It seems to be refreshed properly if i zone.
This also happens to me when I use the shift-click-option.
Great addon grennon, anything new with the above bug?

Quote from Pulz »
Same thing as above poster is happening for me.
But its not happening to anything but bolts of netherweave.
Lost 10 stacks of bolts, just figured I had missplaced them until I only had 1 stack in the box and was gonna get it into my bags and it just disappeared with that same error.
Cry, 600 cloth lost :(
By the way, this question might have an obvious answer (As I have been away from the game for a long while now) but has this issue been fixed in Postal as of late? I tried reading the previous posts but it seems that Vicodin is making reading comprehension somewhat of a slow process for me lol.
Postal is a great addon but there are 2 things why I still use GMail:
1. General Alt+Click doesn't seem to implemented yet. This may function when you mass-mail something but it doesn't function when you trade for example 60 Healing Potions. You have to click on a stack in your inventory and put it in the trade window - this must be done 6 times :(. With GMail or CTMailMod I don't have this problem.
2. Receiving more than one post takes much too long (first I thought our server has severe lags but after installing GMail2 the receiving was fast as usual).
If this two problems can be resolved, Postal would be the best Mailing-Addon available for WOW :) Until this is done my choice is GMail :D ;)

2. I belive this is to make sure the items really get into your bags before deleting the mail. To ensure no items are deleted when it shouldn't.

Postman?
i think a meeting of the minds is inc!

My fault, fixed now. Thanks for the report :)
This was critical in my german Version, so i updated it like this.
Aha, that's why noone can trade me.

Could you implement a stacking module please?
It should have a quick toggle button in the mail pane to switch it on or off.
