Hello Everybody,

Today I introduce to you the first stable version of EVEMail. This version acheives everything that i set out for EVEmail to acheive when I sat down with a Pen and paper and started jotting down the thought in my head that eventually turned into EVEMail. It was after I realized that ESI was going to have the Mail Endpoint and that just got me all kinds of stoked up. Don't ask, I think it has to do with being a developer. No I do not think that EVEMails are that exciting.

This version of EVEMail brings you the ability to perform the following actions via our Web Interface:

- Send and Receive EVEMails
- Reply to EVEMail
- Sort your EVEMail by Mailbox Labels
- Personalize your profile with an Email Address
- Opt into receive new eve mail notifications via you're inbox

With this features, I was able to comfortably say that I wanted this to be version.

Now, please do not get me wrong. As I started development on this application, I realized that i wanted to do so much more with it. I slowly worked additional features in, like that characeter search tool. It started off with you just typing the name in and hoping it was correct....now it is what it is now.

I have a lot more features in store for the EVEMail Web App.

Come along for the ride with me, and help me become a better developer. I mean seriously....what else am I going to, I am a **** PvPer....

Thanks Guys,
David Davaham

**UPDATE 2017-03-09**
I have been informed that there is an issue opening mail right now. I am aware of the issue and have looked into it briefly. I think I have identified the problem, but unable to fix right now because I am currently at work. This should be fixed at the latest by downtime tomorrow. This is only affect the ability to read mails. You will still receive notification from the system regarding new mails to your email inbox if you have signed up for email notifications

Great stuff! Are you planning to aggregate mails over multiple accounts?



The link to Contact on the page Services leads to services, not contact.

Also there is a little typo on the confirm email setup: http://imgur.com/a/ir7zW

Nice work David, I particularly like the clean, themed interface.

I realise that you've still work to do, but I just wanted to say that so far - I'm delighted!

Should make my mail interactions with the Highsec rebels that much more pleasant and efficient.

An awesome thing!

I really love how fit links open in o.smium. One litte question - could you make these links more noticeable (like in EVE mail). F.e. here http://i.imgur.com/9LUYeYp.png all ship names are actually a fit links, yet it is hard to notice at the first glance.

I know what you're asking for, but can you make a suggestion as to a change that could be made and I will see what I can do.
