Reading mails through a book is really a great idea. I love it!
I've thought of an offline-messaging plugin for quite some time, but never got around to it, mainly because of the limits of the chat line length. But with books it'd be a piece of cake.
How about a different approach:
Sender starts writing by using a command; it opens up a book editor and lets them write any message. The message is stored by the plugin (DB?), and has no physical representation in the world.
Receiver gets a message that they have new mail, and they can use commands to navigate new messages. Once they open the message, a book-reader UI is displayed, with the contents of the message.
I'm not too fond of sending items this way, it's "too secure"
