Optional mailboxes for players homes.

Would work like this:

Player places a single chest and creates a sign above it saying:

Mailbox
PlayerName

If someone creates a letter and sends it so somebody, IF they have a mailbox it will send the letter to the mailbox instead.

Configurable options / other ideas:

Whether or not the postman would actually appear at the mailbox pretending to deliver the mail.
Mailbox full? Postman would deliver it straight to the player like right now

Forgot to mention, mailbox should probably be locked and only accessable by the player who owns the mailbox.

Hmm, this could be interesting.

Accepted but see the link for the original ticket. Also, this can mostly be done already today using the MailBox plugin together with Courier.

I just want to comment on this about the Mailbox plugin.  I tried it on my server a few days ago, it seems okay except it doesn't have any sort of protection on the chest, and it doesn't automatically have any marker that it is a mailbox.  It felt a little clunky and didn't have enough customization, and I'd really like a single plugin that handled both parts efficiently and in sync.  The other thing was that it sent it instantly, I like the idea of having a postman actually delivering mail a bit after it was sent.

Maybe not Only create Personal MailBoxes, but also a "MailBox" or NPC wich is always there wich can give out your Mail if you approach him. So you dont have to wait for the Mailman.
