"The Ebony Mail is an artifact created before recorded history, according to legend, by the Dark Elven goddess Boethiah. It is she who determines who should possess the Mail and for how long a time. If judged worthy, its power grants the wearer invulnerability to all common magical attacks that drain talents and health. It is Boethiah alone who determines when a person is ineligible to bear the Ebony Mail any longer, and the goddess can be very capricious..."

The Ebony Mail is a cuirass artifact that can be obtained by taking part in an artifact quest. The quest can be started anywhere but Black Marsh while the artifact itself will be found in Black Marsh.
As artifacts cannot be sold to merchants and you are limited to a single artifact at a time without exploits, the Ebony Mail should not be obtained by classes that are unable to use its armor type.
