== 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 [[Courier]] or [[Dark Messenger]] respectively. ==Typesof spirit containers ==There is no difference in operation between the various spirit containers.
*[[Spirit house]] - ''Fine Carpentry''
*[[Spirit mansion]] - ''Fine Carpentry''
*[[Spirit castle]] - ''Masonry''
==MethodSending process ==To send the mail, drop the [[item]](s) into the [[Mail#Types|spirit container]], then right-click the [[mail]]boxcontainer, and select ''Send''. A dialogue There are two dialogs that you will come up asking for various detailsto control how the items are sent. The first allows you to specify the name of the recipient, such as if and what items should be send using C.O.D. (Cash on delivery). It also allows to skip the second dialog. The second dialog allows you want to send it see how much the delivery charge will be, and to specify the C.O.D. amount you will charge the recipient if applicable.  == Receiving process ==To receive or check for mail, right-click any spirit container and select ''Check''. If an item is sent as ''Cash On Delivery'' and you need to have the money in your bank to whom cover the delivery charge before you're sendingcan receive the items.  You also have the option to return the items to the sender.  == Non-retrieved items ==If there are multiple items in the spirit containerrecipient does not pick up their mail within two weeks, you'll need or if they use return-to check -sender and the boxes for original sender does not pick up the items within two weeks, they are destroyed.  <span style="text-decoration: underline;">'''There is no way to extract items from the mail system if you wish to send.are not the recipient !'''</span>
To receive mail right-click the [[mail]]box, and select ''Check''If you are sending something valuable, ensure that the recipient is available to pick it up before you send it. If you return an item is sent as ''Cash On Delivery'' you need to have the money in sender, it would be good manners to contact them to ensure they retrieve it before the banktwo week deadline.'''
=== Postage =charges ==The postage is 10 [[Bank of Wurm|copper]] per item if the receiver is on the same server. You will be charged , or 20 copper per item if the receiver is on another server. Cross-server mailing is currently limited to within the [[Freedom|Freedom Isles]] ([[Independence]], [[Deliverance]], [[Exodus]] , [[Celebration]], and [[Chaos]]). The An exception to this is the postage fee for inscribed [[papyrus sheet]]s is 40 [[Bank of Wurm|iron]], even for cross-server deliveries.
The postage fee is taken from the bank accountof the sender as the items are sent, unless they are C.O.D., in which case it is taken from the recipient when received.
Items sent in containers still count, so for example a incur fees. Example : A [[backpack]] with 3 [[wood scrap]]s in it would cost you 4 x 10 copper (1x backpack, 3x wood scrap) to send due to being counted as 4 separate items. Also, combing items (e.g. Lumps) does not decrease the mailing cost, so a 4kg lump costs the same as 4x 1kg lumps.
=== Delivery times ===
Any items sent via mailbox have a predetermined time for mailing. The strength of the enchant affects this (and appears to be 101 minus the cast strength in minutes).
