my sims no longer get mail

I do. I tend to only pick up the debugger when I have a problem, then immediately sell it again. Sadly, that object is not especially attractive (unlike the fabulous college clock), and it mucks up snapshots :)
So the process goes:
-I spot Sheldon hanging around outside the dorm (no, the student has no relationship with him, it's not a casual drop-by, but he acts like it is)
-Sheldon walks off the lot, no bills delivered
-I buy the debugger and check for stuck bills. Nothing. Nada. Only options are Rerandomise, fix AWOL Headmaster, clear offworld loiterers (which gives some weirdarse message about what sounds more like the rerandomise option), and one other which I forget.
-delete debugger
That's exactly the way it happened to me, and it's even the same dorm. I also get the debugger, use it, and then sell it right away. If it continues on the same venue, the next sim you move into that dorm after the present one graduates, will get bills again. At least that's what happened with mine.

I keep the debugger and the macrotastics launcher on site at all times. I agree, the esthetics leave something to be desired, so I turn MoveObjects On and place them under the foundation. Both objects are then out of sight, but always a simple click (floor down) away.
Convenient.
I've had the weird disappearing bills before, but it never lasts long, so I just ignore the phenomenon.

As long as the repo man isn't taking your sims stuff, I guess it's not a major problem. Someone else here was having the opposite problem in that they did get mail and they did pay the bills, but the repo man came anyway! And there were no stuck bills shown by the lot debugger.

C'etait moi!
I'm still planning a very nasty treatment for the repoman when I go into SimPE again!!!!! Wish there was a way in game that I could get him eaten alive by cockroaches! Poor Lilith has bad memories of each and every item he took!
RainbowTigress:
I thought it might have been you, but I was too lazy to use the search tool, LOL. When I first got Uni and the Dreamers had stuck bills, I deleted the bad memories in SimPE, replaced the sink he took, and added the money back to the household funds. Not the same as torturing the repoman, but at least it was as though it never happened and Ivy and Darren stopped crying about it. I couldn't put Dirk's aspiration points back though. I didn't know how at the time..
