Muling: Let us mail to alts without having them on friend list

[Wowa]

I don't know if this has been posted since I didn't read the entire thread but you could:

Step 1: Log on character A and log out inside of an instance (it will appear as online and inside the instance even after you log out)

Step 2: Log on character B and send character A a friend invite.

Step 3: Log on character A and accept the invite

Congratulations you can now mail things to your alts.

Doesn't work. You get the message about your character still being currently logged in. Also I think the person you mail to has to on your friendlist and online.
