O, is THAT where that email came from!
Thanks for all the Inf Hube!

It remains to be seen if any of our lost emails(and attached things) will reappear.
The plastic tips at the end of shoelaces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister.

Actually, it seems that time has changed as all the servers are going down at about 11:30 pm eastern 8:30 pacific. Still not planning on holding my breath for the return of my missing infamy though.

Expect the worst, hope for the best. When this happened the other day they reappeared.
Dec out.
Are you certain the inf is gone from the sender? I had something similar happen to me. Searched my email: nothing! However, when I logged back in to the original toon, the influence was still there.
I have also had all emails that WERE in my inbox with nice attachments expire too early. Those were recovered by a petition and some auxillary follow up information.
Good luck!

Ya, it's gone. They are investigating the problem, trawling through server logs. Not much hope, but I have to say I've gotten more activity on this petition than anything I've seen in the past. I'm not holding on to any hope of it being returned.|

That is the last time I will send any attachment if there is even a hint of server problems, lagging, or other connection issues.
My guess is the game client sent the message but that it was never received by the server and that the crash and disconnect before the communication was complete means the email and attachment was lost in the ether.

I sent a lvl 25 Damage IO to myself. It never appeared to any character, including the sender.

For those that are interested, I got my Infamy back, HOORAY!
So, in the future, if the same thing should happen to you, send a petition right away and you too might get lucky.
Seems that after a thorough trawling of the server logs they found something, though they were not specific as to the details. I don't envy them at all, I've had to trawl server logs myself and it is a tediously boring thing to do.
