It sounds like the "all items" covers mogstation-purchased things. I deleted the mail they came in, of course.

The following will be transferred along with your character:
Friend lists
All items, including gear and minions
Retainers and all items in their possession
Moogle letters
Gil (10 million gil per character, 5 million gil per retainer)
You can have cross-world friends as long as you're in the same datacenter! (Otherwise, you get a nice "cannot retrieve" or "deleted" placeholder instead). However, with the upcoming World visit feature, you can hop to any world on your datacenter freely in-game, so unless you're moving worlds for a Free Company or for Linkshells, I'd hold off. Or if you're moving servers regarding the upcoming Datacenter Redistribution, I'd still also say hold off because they'll almost assuredly make transfers free during that time because a lot of people are gonna want to reshuffle. (which...has plenty of dedicated threads with people's thoughts on the matter.)

Item-wise, once it's assigned to your character, it's part of your character's data. Regular mog mail messages are all tied to your character and even if someone renames or server hops, they aren't affected.
