Bulk Mail and Bulk Mail Inbox

[dhedbor]

I've recently taken over the long abandoned addons BulkMail2 and BulkMail2Inbox. In the past few days I've converted BulkMail2 to Ace3/LibQTip/LibDropdown and it's now available as Bulk Mail v4.0. It likely has bugs at this point (which is why it's still beta) but it does seemlessly upgrade from BulkMail 2.

Also with Bulk Mail v4.0, I've dropped the FuBar support and have added an LDB provider instead (with the same functionality).

I haven't yet looked at BulkMail2Inbox (expect a similar renaming to Bulk Mail Inbox or similar) but the plan is to convert it to Ace3 as well, and also fix the long semi-broken handling of bulk opening of emails.

If you don't know what Bulk Mail is, it's an addon that makes the mail interface somewhat nicer but which also adds a very handy auto sending feature where you can configure it to automatically send certain items to a character. This makes farming a lot nicer overall.

BMI is shaping up nicely. Added searching and pagination today (in case you have huge inboxes):

Your efforts are much appreciated. As an AH Mogul, I don't think I could function without BulkMail Inbox to handle 800 mails in my inbox every day. Thank you very much for your time and energy.

BMI beta is now available, Ace3'd and with several improvements to boot.

Giving them a testdrive and they work.

However Inbox 4.0.0-beta-nolib pops an error:

It still does what its supposed to afaik, just poping it.

Also, is there any way to conreol Iconsize and textsize for the Inbox flyout? Atm they are very very small when running on 0.64 UI scale and i would like to make them a little bit bigger so i dun need to squint with glasses on

[dhedbor]

I'll see about adding text sizing, which should take care of the icon sizes as well.

Awsome


Small issue.

Take cash isn't working, neither link nor button. (sold items on AH) if i select them and taske selected it works, but not take cash.

[dhedbor]

Specifically sold on AH? I've tested by sending cash to me and that worked fine.

Edit: I think I found the root cause for this. It did cause display issues at least. I just tried to "take cash" with some 7 AH sold emails and it worked fine. Likely related to the same issue that broke filtering of mails.

Ill try to get some more stuff sold so i can do some testing.

Bunch of font related errors in new nolib version (r109-nolib), probably related to the external libraries. (Changing font and fontsize works, just popping some errors on loadup for missing locales)
