Mail

^ How to send and read mail

You can send and read mail in any post office that is not in enemy territory. Post offices can be found in all of the newbie start locations and in most large cities.

To mail someone else, simply type "mail <name>" (without the brackets). To read your mail, type "mail", and an index of all of the messages in your mailbox will appear. To read a message, type the message number and hit enter.

You may also send a note you've written to someone. To do this, type "deliver <note>" in any post office.

^ Other mail commands

For a complete list of mailer commands, type "mail" to enter the mailer system and then type a question mark at the prompt.

^ How to get a mailing address

It is necessary to register for a mailbox. Doing so costs 10 gold.

To register for a mail box or change your current mail box location, use the 'register' command in the post office. You can also 'unregister' if you wish to get rid of your mail box. Additionally, if you have pending mail debts, from sending mail to hard to reach places, you can 'settle' them at any post office that you can use.

Once you have registered, your mailing address is:
<your name>@<city where you registered>.

For example, if your name is Elmo, and you had a post office box at the post office in Bywater, your mud-mailing address would be Elmo@Bywater.

You cannot send mail to someone that is ignoring you, nor can you send mail to someone that you are ignoring.

In addition to sending mail to players by name, you may also send mail to 'friends' (players who are on your friend list) as well as 'clan' and 'guild', provided that you are a member of a clan or guild.
