In addition to this all EVE Mails sent by NPCs that are older than 3 months will be deleted.

NOOOOOO! Don't nerf old CONCORD killmails!

---

This again! I have killmails I am fond of from back in the day, don't destroy them!

what!!

we'll have to see how the exchange rate affects my game time renewal in feb.

Can we at least have a storyline tracker introduced?

Its always good to know how many missions off the next storyline or how many storylines youve done overall.

Will this mean that POS running low on fuel wont send out the same mail 3 times every hour?

Didn't you try this with Bookmarks already.

haha, well as i said in the ask a dev any question thread:

Is it intentional to reintroduce old bugs in new patches?

someone should build any of these new systems on the latest version of the clients code.

they should migrate them to the kill combat log system

Uh ok, but seriously since it's the first page and you might still be paying attention to this, can we get any sort of timeline for fixing the evemail system? It would be great to get a "sent" outbox, would be great if the whole "to" box was easier to copy names into, and

dum dum dum

It would be tonythetiger GREEEEEATT if mailbox settings persisted. As an example, I want my undread messages to always appear at the top like every_other_email_client_ever. It's this little quirk of mine. It would be great if I didn't have to sort that after every relog, because lag can be screwey with evemail.

Anyways there's a whole ton of changes that would make evemail soo much better, though I think just having persistent settings would make it 500% better. So uh, could you include that as well? Or at least acknowledge that you know evemail is pretty bad? And has been for x years?

Oh I know, but looks like there not fixing anything, just removing old "uneeded" items from teh database, BM's were replaced with warp to zero yes, but that was added as a "how do we stop them just remaking the damn things" evemails we can't remake them.

Just give us a way to export the damn things!.

Gee, what is most important: keeping killmail archives or improving client/server performance? The good of the few, or the good of the many?

Just copy your mails and paste them into a Word document, and voilà! Killmail archives for ya.

---

or maybe store them in the database under the combat log and seperated by month so as to cause less lag in retrievals of mails.

This seems like the wrong way to fix a mail system. I understand having a quota. I understand that this is easier than rewriting it to be more like an "real" mail system. But really, I don't see how this will fix anything. But if you can still page through older messages, this wouldn't be so bad. (Yes, 1000 is a lot, but it is still an arbitrary limit.)

I would really like to see threaded corp mails. It is very annoying not knowing the order the replies were sent in, and reading them out of order, or not knowing the subject the reply is referring to.
