nice, very nice. I hav emade a community chest before, and this will improve MT experience

Cool mod.
I like the shape of the box and I like the way it works.

It's intentional that one can't put something in own mailbox, right?

How many spaces are there in the mailbox?

If I remember correctly: same as in a chest (didn't count)

Yes it is. Just to avoid owners of the box using it as a chest, filling it so no new mail can fit.

Maybe you could make a comunity mailbox where there are about 5 slots and people can own different slots. OR there could be a shared mailbox. Finally maybe you could have a name on the sides.

jojoa1997, you have big ideas. Shared mailboxes make sense. An ability for the owner to add shared users. I see no reason for the slots idea. One can make 5 mailboxes to keep eachothers mail seperated. Aesthetically i understand your pov. I'll put it on the could have list.

Names on mailboxes... Maybe the multiple owner mailbox.

Good mod :D

You could look at 0gb's chest mood for shared mailboxes.

Can you add indicator for empty and not empty mailbox? Now red checkbox of the mailbox not work (it is static) and mailbox owner need every time open his mailbox to check for new mail (item). I mean if mailbox is empty then red checkbox is down (horizontal position) but if mailbox is not empty then red checkbox is up (vertical position). See attachments.
