To add a 'refresh' button to our mail so that we don't have to wait 3-7+ minutes for a refresh/travel to a different zone via the wayshrine to view new mail/bought items from the store etc etc.

    It shouldn't require user interaction. It should just appear after the mail is received on the server end. Rewards of the Worthy can pop into my mailbox pretty much instantly so its not like there's some limitation to that. Just boggles my mind that not everything works that way.

    Good point, it should just appear like *poof!* but for some reason, it doesn't...

    So, if ZOS cannot make our mail instantly update, we may as well get a refresh button OR a personal postman, like this guy:

    *Buys some carrots...*

    Reloadui doesnt refresh your mail. Changing zones or reloging does.
    Because I can!

    Hmm, why not have a guy on a horse race up, take the package, race off... Load time wait ... Guy on horse races up to recipient, delivers package, races off... OR, maybe, you hit send, a portal opens, a banekin pops out, grabs the package and jumps back through... Recipient gets the same...

    Aside from that, then yeah, make it instant please.

    I would like a button that just reloaded me to the zone I was standing in. I have reloaded zones for mail and other little issues and this has helped. So button that does this would be great.


    A mail refresh button would be spammed so many times and this would lead to issues and rage posts.

    Definitely would like to see this. I often need things that I buy right away but relogging takes a long time for me, so I have to go find an Outlaw's Refuge just to trigger my mail. Heck, I'd be happy even if /reloadui would refresh the mail.

    Technically there is a refresh button.

    You click over from inbox to send and back and it refreshes. I know it is one extra click, but it does work.

    You don't need to relog; I just travel from rawl to belkarth and it refreshes. But @Bouldercleave above me seems to have a better solution if it works, will be trying it fo sho.

    That doesn't do anything for the whole "server isn't moving mail across / to me until I Zone or Relog" thing that's been going since...forever.
