Inbox & Events

The Inbox collects two kinds of messages:

Story emails

Narrative content tied to your progress — some are triggered by hitting certain hacking levels, others by milestones like defeating a boss. They're read-only flavor content; there's no reply or choice mechanic.

• Unread emails are visually distinct from read ones.
• You can archive a message to move it out of the main inbox, and restore it back later — nothing is ever deleted.
• A badge/alert counter tracks how many new emails have arrived since you last opened the inbox.

Security alerts (PvP)

If another player successfully hacks you, you get a "security breach" email:

• If you were attacked once, the subject names the attacker directly.
• If you were attacked multiple times (e.g. while offline for a while), they're grouped into a single email listing each attack with the attacker's name, amount stolen, and timestamp, plus a running total extracted.
• If your firewall was active during an attack, the email notes that it reduced the attacker's odds but was still overcome.

These behave the same as story emails for archive/restore purposes — they're just a different content type in the same inbox.
