E-mail yourself using your @global. This way any of your characters on my server can get it. You are limited to 20 e-mails being stored at a time, and something like 100/150 per day. One hyper active day I actually reached the max for the day.

And just as a "best practices" when actively transferring things by global email;

-Send a 'blank' email to your global @name (messages need something in the subject line and body; I use "reply to send to self" in both). This should send you the blank mail, and it will sit in your inbox. To send anything to your other characters, reply to the blank, and drag+drop items and/or input the inf amount to be transferred. This helps reduce the likelihood of a typo sending your stuff to someone else.

-If you are transferring/storing a large sum of inf or expensive recipes or enhancements via email, it may not be a bad idea to keep an external record of it; Errors do occasionally happen, and if you need to contact support about it, it can help them restore your stuff if you tell them exactly what vanished.

And don't forget you have to be level 10 (I think) to send an email... but any level can receive one.

Correct on both counts (ten and any).

3) DO NOT LEAVE THE STUFF IN EMAIL.
Sometimes we have server sneezes and things stored in the email box go bye-bye. Send the item, log to the other character, and claim it.

I have two questions:

  1. What is the correct way to include an address when sending an e-mail?
  2. How do I add an attachment?
Thanks in advance.

1.) Write it in the form of '@Global'. You can find your global name by typing in /getglobalname $name exactly like that (it'll spit it out in the Global chat tab). You'll be putting an at-symbol (@) in front of it, to signify that it's a global name.
2.) Drag and drop what you want to attach to the 'Attachment' section of the window (to send money, just type the value into the Influence text box).

If she looks like an old sourpuss to you, then you're not as grown up as I thought you were.
