This page describes the communication features of the EVE Companion App, including in-game mail, alliance/corp channels, event announcements, and planned features like voice relay integration and shared planning boards.

• Provide integrated access to EVE mail and corp/alliance communications
• Enable clear, asynchronous planning for ops and fleets
• Support multi-character messaging from a unified inbox
• Reduce reliance on out-of-game Discord or voice for logistics

Mail is fetched via ESI endpoints:

• /characters/{id}/mail/
• /mail/lists/ for corp/alliance mailing lists

Mails are cached locally and marked as read/unread per character.

The composer supports:

• Subject and body inputs
• Markdown-style text formatting (planned)
• Mailing list selection dropdown

• Collapse conversations by subject or participant
• Group related mails with fitting or killmail links
• Tag conversations by category (ops, trading, intel)

Fleet or event mail can optionally create a synced calendar entry with:

• Title, start time, duration
• Participants
• Description and links
