Disappearance of outfits

Due to some change in game, the pre U-17 non-named outfits are disappearing.

The details are unknown -

• it is unknown if they are already gone, or if they disappear on character or account log-in;
• it is unknown if it's possible to restore them.
• The devs are investigating the issue. DDO Forums

Until it is solved, some people may appreciate a warning that logging in may cost them all their outfits. Would it be appropriate to put one somewhere on the main page?

It would appear that the outfits to not disappear until you log into that character. DDO Forums AZGreenTea

Fixes

Cordovan (Contribs • Message • Email • Cordovan), should prevent future disappearances on characters that have not been logged in since Update 17 was released. Restoration of items for characters that logged in prior to the hotfix will be handled in some capacity, later. --Spencerian 15:37, February 21, 2013 (EST)

Another thread here, DDO Forums looks like we are receiving lost item via in-game mail. --yoko5000 (Contributions • Message) 03:46, February 23, 2013 (EST)

While the hotfix was supposed to fix the problem of outfits disappearing, there are reports it was not fully effective.

Taking the returned outfits out of mail may cause problems too:

Since it looks like I may have given out incorrect information earlier, I'll remove that until we have a better idea of what's going on. It - appears - that if you had completed a quest in the chain and taken an outfit as an end reward, then detaching that outfit from the mail advances/completes the overall story arc. If I find out more, I'll let you know.

As of March-17;
