| - The Delivery Box system is used to send and receive items and gil between characters, even when those characters are not logged into the game. There are two components: an "inbox" and an "outbox". Nomad Moogles, Green Thumb Moogles, and Mog House moogles provide access to your inbox, where you can pick up items that have been sent to you by other characters or an Auction House, and Item Deliverer NPCs located near the Auction Houses allow you to send items to other characters. Inbox items are queued if more than 8 items are waiting for pickup. There is a limit of 128 queued inbox items. In a scheduled update in early in 2006, in an effort to combat RMT, Square Enix changed the rules for sending Gil. Since that update, characters are able to send Gil to only one character at a time, and that amount must not exceed one million Gil. Prior to this update, there was no specific limit on the amount of Gil that could be sent, nor the number of recipients (not exceeding the general eight item limit). There are some limits to the Delivery Box:
* Exclusive items cannot be sent via the delivery box mechanism, unless the sender is on the same Content ID as the recipient. This also allows a player to send many Ex items to his or her own mog house.
* A small number of non-Exclusive items are also barred from being mailed through the delivery box mechanism. Some examples are the "God seals," Ancient Beastcoins, Linkpearls, Alexandrite, and Dynamis currency.
* No more than eight items at a time may be sent from each character. Sent items will remain in the sender's outbox until claimed by the recipient, at which time the corresponding slot in the sender's outbox will be opened for reuse.
