Better Inbox   Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
BetterInbox replaces the default paging Blizzard inbox with a scrollable inbox with some extra features.

- Summary of invoices, attachments and gold at the top.
- Dropdown embedded to select what to open, all mail, all items, all gold.
- Select certain mails via a checkbox and open the selected mails, items or gold

The open all feature might still have some quircks with battleground tokens you can't pick up.

See the screenshot for an example of the attachment summary and looks.

Enjoy,

3.0.2 update, please?

I love this addon madly, but with the 3.0.2 patch I'm having trouble -- when I try to use the scrollbar, I get an error. Trying to use it again doesn't give an error, but neither does it actually scroll. Any chance of an update? Going back to stock mail sucks, especially with how many auctions I have, and no other addons do what I want -- which is, pretty much, exactly what Better Inbox does. Or did, anyway!

Thanks.

Point 2 is a problem with the blizzard mail interface, if you query the server too fast it'll generate the errors. You can ignore them, or maybe I should make BetterInbox ignore them when its opening stuff

-Ammo
referring to Point 2 Ammo, please make BetterInbox ignore the blizzard error messages only in the process of taking all items out of inbox.

please make this error stop showing!

Thank you!

Any chance that we could get an option to turn off the tooltip list of items attached to mail? I'd kind of like to use this addon with Postal but they have a bit of a nasty feature overlap.

on the last version you've make the choice to put checkbox on the icon of mail but i think (for me) there is a little more bigger because i don't see the icon and when i just want open the mail i click in the checkbox and i didn't want to do that. it's just a detail sorry

(If i am the only one to have this prob so forget my suggestion)
Hmm I think I know the issue. There is a hidden text to the right of the checkbox, I will fix that for the next release.

2.
When retrieving any specific group of items / gold, it prints an "internal mail database error" yet works flawlessly. Is this an issue on Blizzard's side, or something you could possibly work around?

Thanks again!

Re: Compatability with Easymail

New version on wowace svn has a checkbox at every mail (topleft of the icon), and an option to only take the selected items/gold/all in the dropdown.

I will not add features to the 'send mail' for now, maybe that'll come in a BetterOutbox addon.

As soon as this new version is tested properly I will upload to wowi

Can the Author add compatibility with EasyMail, or alternatively add the features of EasyMail?



EasyMail Features: http://www.wowwiki.com/EasyMail
  • Remember last recipient, and recipient list
  • "Take All" button
  • Checkbox message selection with "Ge Attachments" button for selected messages.
