points at the date on the thread and the fact this is necro posting....
anyway there is a command to dump all in game mail to a text file - character info probably will not be dumped as it would involved development money that I don;t see being spent.
I posted before go on vacation, sorry to try to clearify to have an answer after I came back 
For the command, I know this one to dump mail and log. I already develop a first tool to extract info from log. I already mentionned it there: http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=general_star_wars&message.id=16262
I want to go further to developped a personal external tool to allow user to:
1- See her character, with skills, stuff, ... Just to see it outside, for fun. (Do you know Magelo for EQ character ?)
2- To think about a new template based on the available skills/mods ingame... but ok, I can implement simply what already exist in term of character builder. I just have to copy/paste everything from my ingame skill screen manually.
3- Manage mail. Since the command to export (dump) mail exists, I can do it.
4- Server status
5- Customize UI
6- Manage Macros
7- other ideas? Waypoint database? Datapad view? Stuff condition? Structure status?
In fact, all of that are just "external view of the game" except for the UI customization
To day the game give log and mail and I dreamed to have more.
The money reason, I understand it beause I prefer dev to give us new feature ingame than outside te game
I would be happy to read: Not now, but it's not the priority.
So, I've something close to "Never because EULA"...
I'm not a lawyer so, can you tell me if the tool I already developped is outlaw?
