Have you tried using /testscripts ingame?
Have you got a folder in "server" that is named "mailsystem"?
Why did you put new subs at the top?

[BigB502]

Q:Have you tried using /testscripts ingame?

A:It said everything was ok

Q:Have you got a folder in "server" that is named "mailsystem"?

A:It never said to.

Q:Why did you put new subs at the top?

A:I dident have the sub it called for.

[Akselj]

You have to make that folder, the subs is getting and saving data there, and only .INI's is crated by scripts. So, unless you make it the script won't work. And I just checked your main again, and it is using an out-dated command. Use Ctrl + F and find all GetPlayerSex and change Sex to Gender.

There were a few things that got messed up when you copied the script over. 

> Call PutVar("mailsystem\" & reciever & ".ini", "mailbox", "box" & n,
>
> GetPlayerName(index) & ": " & field_message & "")

That should all be on one line.  Same with:

> 'Call playermsg(index, "Clicked  field number " & clicked_index & " on the menu named " & menu_title & ". The field text was
>
> " & field_message, 14)

Also, after this:

> '******************************************************************
> ' Executes when a hotkey is pressed client-side.
> Sub HotScript(Index, KeyID)
> '******************************************************************

You need to add this:

> Select Case KeyID
> Case 1

And here:

> Call CustomMenuTextBox(index, 1, 180, 65, 235, "Enter a name!")
> Call CustomMenuTextBox(index, 2, 180, 65, 260, "Enter a message!")
> End Sub

You need to delete the line that says End Sub.

Hopefully that should get you closer to having a working script.
