What are these for? I've already read a couple FAQs and still don't
know. I discovered in game that the Harbour Mail could be traded to a
girl for an item, but aside from that - ??? What are all these XXX
Mail's for? What are they?

TIA,

They're for exchanging notes when you trade Pokemon. Since, of course,
you can't just enter any old words you want and are stuck with the *VERY*
limited in-game dictionary, it's rather pointless.

Huh - well that's a bit silly. Cheers for the info

So if I sold or tossed all that mail it wouldn't affect my game at
all right?

The only real use I found was in Emerald. You need a Harbour Mail to get the
Coin Case in Mauville City. That's it. Otherwise, trash 'em.

I miss the good old days of trading pokemon and dirty notes with them ^^

The worse crime you can commit against another human is to make them think.

Also applies to Ruby/Sapphire, of course, not just Emerald.
