NW's mail system is kind of lacking

1) We cannot select a bunch (Or all) messages for deletion, have to delete them one by one, gets tiresome.
2) There is no "Sent" tab, so you can see what you've sent to X person, and if it indeed, was sent. (Some people sent P.Vorpals to the wrong person, this "Sent" tab would make them see who that P.Vorp went to).
Might want to look into it admins.

It's not an "add-on for convenience only", since it is essential to the AH. As long as you need to redeem every single item (or failed bid) on a separate mail, it NEEDS an overhaul. Desperately so. After buying 200 alchemists and 80 other assets (all non stackable), I wasted half an evening collecting them and clearing my mailbox.
If you add direct direct AH trade (items are deposited in your inventory) and an account bank (for account bound item swapping), then it may be considered an add on and left as is.
I'm referring to the Cryptic system (Neverwinter is the newest, so it incorporates much from the older games). If you don't want to call it an add-on, that's fine. In either case it is minor feature and meant to be. Hence, robustness is not necessarily something that was ever really planned into it.
I'd love if they beefed it up with all these usability features. But only after they fix all the current bugs and balance in the game first. I'm not kerboshing the idea. Just saying I would;t hold my breath for these kind of features to come our way too soon.
Most MMO mail systems don't seem to have been designed with the "fringe" users in mind - the hardcore brokers who buy & sell hundreds of items a day, or people like the STO nutcases who were storing thousands of items in attachments (before they put in the current limits).
And a way to select multiple recipients of a message would be good.

If you have suggestions, by all means share them but to say it's "Lacking" is unfair. They are doing a great job.
I like the Cryptic mail system and hope we all can be more thankful it's not like DDO's. :cool:
Atlantica Online had a pretty neat mail system.
Most MMOs I've tried in the last years did actually have a "dedicated" interface for collecting items (it was integrated into the AH interface), so whether the mail system was versatile or not, it didn't really matter...
