Unless I missed it, I'd like to request a feature, a Delete button that would work with the checkboxes or a Delete key combo, because when I have tons of BG marks in my mail, I'd like to be able to clear them fast. Other than that, great addon, I personally use shift+click to "loot" my mailbox instead of the open all because it's way faster.
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?
I noticed that the bug does not appear if you open the first letter manually and get the rest with open all.
I've noticed that when you check mark mail and click the open/return button the checks dont move with the items, which can lead to a misperception as to what is going to be opened. For example if the 2nd item is checked and the 4th item is checked, the 2nd item is opened and everything shifts up one, if things were still marked right the 3rd item should be checked, however the 2nd and 4th item are still checked.
Also i've had reports from a friend (sorry hasn't happened to me that i've noticed) that it opened more mail than he had asked, he wasn't upset just confused.
One thing i would call rather important is the feature to store SUBJECT with MassMails
let's say i want one of my buddies to craft me an item i mass mail them all needed ingredients, but i want the subject to be the same on all mails (possibly with sort of a counter)
like that:
To: Crafterone
Subject: Please 5 Netherweave Bags[1]
Items: Netherweave Cloth
To: Crafterone
Subject: Please 5 Netherweave Bags[2]
Items: Netherweave Cloth
To: Crafterone
Subject: Please 5 Netherweave Bags[2]
Items: Netherweave Cloth
One thing I'd like to see in Postal is some sort of mail notification, like:
"Mail posted by X should be in Y's mailbox now"
The players could manually clear the notification / it would be cleared when the character receiving the mail log on / etc.
This feature is the about the only reason I still run the MailTo mod along with Postal, MailTo has that fetaure where when you log in to a character it will tell you if any mail in your mailboxes (includes all chars on all servers) is about to expire, has expired, or how long before dilevery. During gameplay it will give you a Ding and a message in chat box when mail is recieved by you or delivered to your alts by you. Would be nice to have that in Postal and have just one addon.

Awesome, thanks for posting this info. And yes, I agree, it would be nice to have a single add-on - Postal - that includes the notification function.
I am having same issues with blocked trades. I am using the newest versions v31283. I have followed all your instructions on this post e.g. edited Config.wtf file and deleted all sav var files relating to postal. I still have to un-check in interface block trades every time and is unfortunately starting to get very annoying. Please let me know how I can try and help you to get this working as it is doing it on many other peoples computers that I have sent the add-on to :-(. I always delete old folders before installing new version and am on En-Us client all classes and many levels up 2 and including 70 both horde and ally.
btw thanks for such a great add-on it has been an asset to so many.
[2007/04/06 12:53:00-1883-x1]: Postal-2.0 r31283.25599\Modules\Express.lua:27: AceHook-2.1: "OnTooltipSetItem" already has an active hook from this source.
<in C code>: in function `TurnOrActionStop'
<string>:"TURNORACTION":5: in function <[string "TURNORACTION"]:1>
I have seen several requests to add log messages for each mail opened/sent. It is not obtrusive in anyway, in fact, it is very helpful to have it. Imagine the situation for me the other day. I had been running postal and bulkmailer, without realising postal had express mail feature. The bulkmailer addon crashed and I lost the two items which I had sent. I still haven't seen them on the bank toon to which I was sending. I'm glad it was just low level cloth mats. The point is, if I had seen messages telling me if they had been sent, I would have been able to determine if they were destroyed or sent. Granted, this is a special case of incompatibilities between the two plugins, but the idea is still there.
Another problem I have is that I can't type in the recipient box until I first click on a name from the menu. I think the menu shouldn't popup but instead of a drop down menu button (perhaps combined with the one next to the recipient box).
LordRhys: look into MailInfo for tracking mail expiration on all your toons. It requires CharacterInfoStorage.
So what combo of mail addons work well together? I now see Postal, Postman, Mailto, CT_Mail (which I use for bulk mailing), and PriorityMail (over at wowinterface). What do you all use?

Well then it would be nice to add an option to remove this "security-feature" ;)

Not sure if it actually fixed it, since I've never experienced this bug, but have you tried the latest version?

Not sure if this has been requested but is it possible to get an alts listing?
So that auto complete can see any alts you have.
Thanks
