I keep missed the reports from the Geologists and then I not know if they have found or not found the item I am looking for.
Is it possible to have a report emailed to you, like the battle reports so you know whats happened?

We don't need email reports from geologists. We can see if we have all the deposits on the island or if one is depleted and we have to send a geo to search a new one.
open your eyes
But if for example I have sent my geologist out for coal and there is no deposit wouldnt it be good to know why?
And DaisyDuke, your comment is as much help as a chocolate tea pot!
You can count if you have all 6 coal deposits found and if you do you'll know why you can't find more and if you don't you can send a geo to find one.Quote:

Even if it sounds to you as not friendly reply, but it is NOT rude or bully, it is a game, just take it with "game spirit", AND you are not asking for help here, this is game suggestion forum, so players have a right to support it or be against it.Quote:

BTW, even if you email, you need to look around and see where the new depo is !!
Also, you can check news tab it will give you the same geo pop up message!
-1 from me too, we do NOT need more INGAME mails (NOT E-mails, huge difference).
-1
I have quite enough SPAM to delete from my in-game mailbox as it is without adding dozens more every single day!
Getting a mail notification to say a deposit has been depleted when not logged in, or when on adventures (similar to the mails we get when buffs are placed while we are away from our home islands) would be most welcome, however.
I totally agree - the "news" should still update while on an adventure or visiting another island. I don't think I want all the info when not logged in, but when active but "away" would be very nice.Quote:

Maybe someone can post a decent guide for you. (not the wiki one)
To be fair, it's not just to check the map and then send, as often the geologist has finished it search and getting ready for a new one BEFORE any deposits have shown up from previous search.
As is, you'd better wait a minute before sending out for any long search if you're not sure about the outcome from previous search.
Have you considered how "news" are technically generated?Quote:

Ingame-mailed reports from geologists would make sense.
Also, there should be a separate folder for all these system generated reports.
The delay with showing deposit and getting a notification, will not be solved with in-game email, even in-game email sometimes, actually, most of the times delayed a lot before you get notified.Quote:

Already deleted good emails because of those misleading emails, no need to increase the chance to do that again.
That's true. As loss of chat ain't solved by chat history. It's about damage controll/reduction - atleast you'd know a search being finished if there's a report in mailbox when you return to your homeisland.Quote:

I want less mail not more
Aww... but think of the poor little settler postmen who will get downsized due to reduce mail volume. And the poor starving even smaller settler Timmys who won't be having turkey for Xmas.Quote:
