A Offline Mail Plugin

I think that a standalone offline mail plugin is much needed - post office was good but it has died out and did not support sqlite.

Something like DSMail from HMod would be cool as well.

Anyone else think this is needed?

 

Yes please

 

Essentials has this feature, although essentials is a LOT more than you're asking.

 

If you want i can look if i can make a mail system?

 

I think this too! I don't want to use Essentials just because that offline mail feature

 

@Hretsam

That would be good if you could Thanks

 

essentials works if the recipient is offline.

 

@tha d0ctor

Yes it does but you have to have a whole lot of other things that are not related to the mail plugin as well.

"A standalone mail plugin"

 

disable everything else in config turn off all premissions?

 

How is that standalone - I have to disable features I don't need...

I might make this myself - been learning java for a month or to now.

 

I was betaing going through and gutting out essentials.mail tday, not sure how its dev would like that though..

 

Ok, i started working on this.
Mails will be saved with SQLLite, (or flatfiles if someone requests that)
You can set how long each mail will be saved.
I wont add multi-server support, because i dont think that will be used.

 

MySQL support?

 

Hmm, can be added

You have to bit a little more patient, as with the 1.5 update, i need to update some other things first

 

I have all the patience

 

one more vote for MySQL! Here are my reasons:

1. I have it installed already and have external access to it. I'd like to be able leverage this for all my databases.
2. I'm guessing that a large portion of the "clients" for an in-game email plugin are going to be the larger servers, which probably have LogBlock or BigBrother installed, which means they are already using MySQL too. (see #1 above)

 

Ok, i will make sure that MySQL is an option. to be honest i prefer MySQL anyways

 

Will make this when the new Build is out!

 

Thats a good idea!

 

Ok, i wanted to give you an update.
Started working on this.
Still a lot to do, but i am getting there.

I am going to skip flatfiles for now, as i get the impression nobody got interest in it.

New update:
I think i'm for 70% done, you can expect something tomorrow.
Just need to add the commands, and test it all out.

 

MYSQL support would also allow you to incorporate the mail plugin on a website if you know php.. which I dont

having just thought of this now I can't wait for this plugin!

 

I got the same idea

 

how well versed are you in PHP, one of my server members is a web developer so I might plug him for a few ideas

 

I make money with it

 

Has this idea been completed yet? I've been waiting for a response from the other developer, haven't seen word of anything. I can duplicate a MemoServ for Minecraft. (For those of you who don't know what memoserv is, it's basically the idea behind this request, but for IRC.)

 

I am almost done with it

 

Are you willing to share to source? I'd really like to see

 

Ofcourse, when its done i will release it as a plugin and put the source on github.

 

cool hopefully we have something cool to work with soon!

 

@Hretsam thanks
