I think it is great that third party developer support keeps improving. It really adds to the game in a fundamental way.
I know WOW uses LUA to support in-game scripting. It may be worth thinking about how a capability like could work in EVE.
Making the mail system API accessible would be useful. Currently mail can be managed in an automated fashion via the web site, but that is obviously awkward. For players who receive in-game emails from customers it would be useful to give them automated replies which could be done easily with a third-party tool if the API supported it. For example, if somebody mails me saying "Hi, I want to do a deal for 500M Tritanium" or something, it would be nice to email him back, "Hello, I am on vacation for 2 weeks and will be returning on January 30th" or whatever. It would be even better if you could do off-line trading. Set up contracts and so forth via a third party app.
If combat logs could be regularized more and include damage type, that would be useful for combat log parsers. I remember when WOW revamped their combat log system so that all combat messages were standardized. It really had a huge effect on the game because combat-log-parsing-related tools became much more useful and accurate.
Once again, thanks a lot for putting effort into third party developer support  |

And the ISK sellers would be falling all over themselves to fill up everyone's Eve-mail just as fast as their scripts could do so ;)

It costs 1M ISK to send mail to a non-contact. |

Nope, that's with the CSPA setting which has been default to 0 now. |

Ok, well users can set whatever amount they want then to pay them for receiving mail. Its a non-issue. |
