Mailing does not work

[Strider 1]

It goes to the mailbox but does not open it.

Hey m8!

You need to provide a log or error message.

If you get the red popup error message I need to see what it says to help you.

What profile are you using? If its selfmade please upload it and i will have a look. Is it grinder or gatherer?

Also check the other threads in forum about mailbox, you might find answer there.

yea same issue,

 

we  cant target a mailbox,

and some post said we can added that via xml,

well, in xml, the first line says

 

<entry>xxxxx<entry/>   xxxx=a number, i dont know what is it, isnt all mailbox named "mailbox"?

 

just make the creator auto click mailbox whenever it is near player, like "there is a mailbox that i can reach at my current location"

[Loki 47]

Xml isnt really needed, not for me anyways.

Check that you have your mail options correct in your settings and that you dont have your blacklist full of stuff you want to mail.

If you have any addons for mail, try to turn them off. ( i use postal)

Dont you get any errors shown?

Hi,

 

For add mailbox propely read this post: 

[da8ball 104]

How do I know the "name" of the mailbox ? I didnt quite get the link Droidz posted...

[Droidz 2738]

You can get mailbox name when you put your mouse cursor over the mailbox in game.

[Loki 47]

Actually most often their name is "mailbox". Write that in the bottom box called npc name and then choose Alliance-mailbox from the pulldown menu above.

Done, mailbox added

[da8ball 104]

Working perfect for me now ! thanks !

[Loki 47]

Awesome! Good job

Either these dont work for the grinder profile or some mailboxes return "Not found" error, now that I tried with a few different ones.

[Loki 47]

When does it say not found? When you are at it?

[Loki 47]

Oh do mind that you should stand next to the mailbox when you add it to your profile. That might me it.

[da8ball 104]

I was, when I Write "Mailbox" and then click on button "Add by name to Npc" a pop up window shows "Not found".

[Loki 47]

Name it mailbox

Choose mailbox from the dropdown

Click Add name/npc button

This will do it

Click Add name/npc button

i did exactly the same, i added mailbox right next to it,(cearting a test xml.)

 

and i recorded my path,

 

2 question:

 

1, does the mailbox have to be somewhere within my path? or kinda close?

 

2, does it only goes to mail when my bags are full?

 

i do have mail option enable, and i dont have anything on blacklist, i just testing so i put " Enchanting Vellum" planing to send them to my alt.

 

 

 

it just not open mailbox, not even stay for a second

You have to write "Mailbox" in the field that says "Name" and then click the buttom "Add target to Npc list"

 

 

I saw my char mailing, the bags werent all full, I had like 4 or 5 slots free.

see in the picture, i did have added Mailbox into the list which is named "mailbox"

[Loki 47]

There is a setting in general settings called "scan for npc mailbox" with the variable of range. Im not sure if your mailbox have to be within that range to fly to it. i always add a vendor around the mailbox since the bot will visit vendor first.

I guess Droidz has to confirm this is the case

[Loki 47]

Oh god Im bad. I answered a complete diffrent question :)

Id like to add though that I also had a problem earier with the bot not opening mailbox when he was right next to it.

I cleared my "do not send" list and apperantly one of the objects on that list was the reason why it didnt open.

It has worked fine after that. Give it a try. All your important shit is soulbound anyway and wont be mailed.

I still don't get it. I've been standing literally on top of the mailbox, adding "Mailbox" from the dropdown and been typing in the exact same thing. It's in Outland, still not possible to find the god damn mailbox.

 

Such a shame :(
