ItemMailBox
A lightweight Paper 1.21.x plugin that lets players share items through an intuitive mailbox GUI - no chests, no clutter.
Features:
- /itembox — Open your personal inbox. Items sent by others appear here. Click to claim.
- /itembox send — Open a send GUI. Drop in items and hit send — they arrive in the recipient's mailbox, even if they're offline.
- Favorites - Add friends to your favorites list: /itembox fav add . Open the favorites GUI (/itembox fav) and click a head to send items instantly — no more typing names.
- Public mailboxes — Toggle your mailbox to public with a button in the GUI. Others can view it with /itembox view .
- Key requirement (optional) — Require a key item (configurable material) to send items. Great for server economies or gated features.
- Cooldown (optional) — Set a send cooldown in seconds to prevent spam.
- Fully configurable — All messages, titles, colors, and behavior are customizable in config.yml.
- Permissions — Granular permission nodes for every feature (itembox.use, itembox.send, itembox.reload, etc.). Offline support — Send items and add favorites even when the target player is offline (uses the server's usercache).
- GUI pagination — Browse mailboxes and favorites with next/previous page buttons.
- YAML storage — Lightweight per-player data files in the mailboxes/ folder.
