Quote from the Sending dialog : ''Use mailboxes with caution and inexpensive items until you rely on the spirits. They are still learning, and take no responsibility for lost items.''

== Description ==
You can send mail to other players in the game via spirit containers which have been enchanted by priests/priestesses of Fo or Libila with the spells [[courierCourier]] or [[Dark Messenger|dark messenger]].
Mailboxes do receive damage and can be destroyed by decay, causing the cast on it to disappear.
* You cannot send an item to a member of an enemy [[kingdom]] on [[Chaos]] or on [[Epic]] servers. You get the message: "You may not trade with the enemy."
* You cannot send items between Freedom or Epic servers and the Jackal server.
* You cannot send items between North and South Freedom clusters.
* '''NOTICE: Items will be mailed to the server the recipient is currently present on. It can only be retrieved from that server.'''
== Sending process ==
To send the mail,
# Drop the item(s) into the any spirit container, then right-click the container, and select ''Send''.
# There are two dialogues that will control how the items are sent.
## The first allows you to specify the name of the recipient, and what items should be sent using C.O.D. (cash on delivery). It also allows to skip the second dialog.
If the recipient does not pick up their mail within two weeks, they are automatically returned-to-sender.
The returned items will go back to the server the sender was on at the time it was sent. The sender will not receive a mail notification unless they enter that server.
If the original sender does not pick up the returned items within two weeks, they are destroyed.
== Postage charges ==
The postage is 1 [[Bank of Wurm|copper]] per item for same or cross-server mailing. Cross-server mailing is currently limited to within the [[Freedom|Freedom Isles]] ([[Independence]], [[Deliverance]], [[Exodus]], [[Celebration]], [[Xanadu]], [[Pristine]], [[Release]], and [[Chaos]]). The postage fee is taken from the bank account of the sender as the items are sent, unless they are C.O.D., in which case it is taken from the recipient when received.
=== Exceptions ===
* An inscribed [[papyrus sheet]] or [[paper sheet]] is 1 [[Bank of Wurm|iron]] to mail.
* Combined items (such as metal lumps, wood scraps, liquids, etc) are 1 copper per 5 kg.
== Delivery times ==
Any items sent via [[mailbox ]] have a predetermined time for mailing. The strength , based on the power of the enchant affects this (and appears to be of the sending [[mailbox]].the timer is 101 minus the cast strength power in minutes).
