Login
The Login screen is what greets a player when they open the mail app (unless they're already signed in). They enter their email and password to get into their inbox.
Email — the account's full address. It comes pre-filled with the last account used on that laptop, so most players just type their password.
Password — their account password.
Trust this laptop — a checkbox that keeps them signed in on that device, so next time the app opens straight into the inbox without asking to log in again.
Sign in button, and a "Create one" link at the bottom for players who don't have an account yet (takes them to sign-up).
Good to know
If the laptop is trusted, the login screen is skipped entirely and the inbox opens automatically.
Wrong password or an email that doesn't exist shows a clear error message right on the form.

Sign up
The Sign up screen lets a player create a new email account. They choose a username and a domain, set a display name and a password, and they're in.
Username + Domain — sit side by side and together form the address (e.g.
yourname+@avscripts.com). The domain is a dropdown that shows the default domain plus any domains the player owns.Display name — the name shown to others on their emails (up to 24 characters).
Password and Confirm password — must match.
Create account button, and a "Sign in" link to go back to login.
Good to know
The username has to be unique on that domain and follows simple rules (a few characters long, letters/numbers and basic symbols).
If the two passwords don't match, or the username/address is taken, the form shows a clear message.
After creating the account, the player is signed straight into their new inbox.
