Main / Mail

Description

You can send mail to other players in the game via spirit cottages and spirit houses which have been enchanted by priests/priestesses of Fo or Libila with the spells Courier or Dark Messenger respectively.

Types

Method

To send the mail, drop the item(s) into the spirit container, right-click the mailbox, and select Send. A dialogue will come up asking for various details, such as if you want to send it as Cash On Delivery and to whom you're sending. If there are multiple items in the spirit container, you'll need to check the boxes for the items you wish to send.

Postage

The postage is 10 copper per item if the receiver is on the same server. You will be charged 20 copper per item if the receiver is on another server.
