Anybody know if it is possible to transfer items, officers, or credits to alts via the mail system or any other means? I tried mailing to the alt's name@(my account) but it didn't see to work.

    1) You need to use a mail terminal to send items (or officers). These are in the same room as bank terminals. Drag/drop items to the five mail slots in a message. Drag/drop bridge officers the same way - you must open your Assignments window. You can only trade unassigned 'Officer Candidates'; once they are activated they are bound to your character.

    2) Credits cannot be traded via mail, only face-to-face (which means you cannot send credits to your alts). You can, however, list items on the exchange with your alt...for the exact value you wish to trade (pick a weird number) and then purchase that listed item on your main.

    3) Send mail to your @globalname, no character. Then all your alts can pick stuff up.

    Yep, I knew you had to mail and retrieve items from a starbase. Didn't know it had to be just to the globalname. Thanks!
