MailNotifier

Version: 9.3

by: jaliborc [More]

MailNotifier is no longer maintained on WoWInterface. For the latest release, check Curse.

MailNotifier is a small addon that has two purposes: tracking how many unread mails the player has in the inbox and alerting him when new mail is received (plays a sound and flashes the minimap mail button).

Features

Tracks how many unread mails you have
Alerts the player when new mail is received
No configuration needed

Limitations

Except when the player visits the inbox, it's impossible to know exactly how many unread mails he has. This is why Mail Notifier can only detect mails received while playing, and by comparing the mail senders list at login (ex: If you have 1 sender when you logout and 3 when you login, obviously you have at least received 2 more mails).

Notes

A special "thank you" to everyone who helped translating MailNotifier to other languages.
And, if you which, consider donating. Anything is appreciated!

That's is one of the ideas I've been thinking about lately, but I'm still mot sure if will implement it.
Meanwhile, you can do the following: go to your "Addons" directory and open MailNotifier's folder. There, replace the "NewMail.wav" file for your own (don't forget to rename it "NewMail.wav")

jaliborc A Chromatic Dragonspawn Forum posts: 196 File comments: 329 Uploads: 20	I have to apologize, because I was not able to upload version 5 until today. I had uploaded the right file the first time, but the WoWInterface system "decided" to provide the previous version as the main download (maybe there was something wrong with the zip, don't know). To fix this issue, I re-uploaded versions 4.2 and 5. Sorry for the inconvenience. Last edited by jaliborc : 04-19-09 at 08:07 AM.

here's a chinese simplified / traditional language strings:

zhCN:

Code:

L.HaveMail = '你有大约 %s 封未读邮件'
L.HaveMails = '你有大约 %s 封未读邮件'
L.From = ' 来自:'

zhTW:

Code:

L.HaveMail = '你有大約 %s 封未讀郵件'
L.HaveMails = '你有大約 %s 封未讀郵件'
L.From = ' 來自:'

No, MailNotifier does not provides any LDB support, but yes, I have plans for it.

This is great! It will be included right in the next version!
Would you like to be listed in the addon's page and in the credits as the author of the chinese translations or do you prefer to remain anonymous? It's the least I can do.

Actually, MailNotifier description could be translated. Just a minor detail, but easy to implement:
"Displays how many unread mails you have and informs you when new is received"

(It's different from thew current one, I know, but this is the next version description.)

P.S: When you translate new strings fell free to send me a private message, so I won't miss it.

Fixed in the upcoming version. Meanwhile, you can type the following on the chat, and then reload the UI:

Code:

\run MailNotifier_SV.senders = {}

That is happening because MSBT_MailNotifier is out of date.
