Why do we have Mailboxes?
92212
You have mailboxes to recieve your mail. For security reasons, the mail carriers don't deliver to your door unless you have a certified letter that needs to be signed for. They are also "timed" on their routes.

The Post Office delivers mail to an address, not a specific person at the address. This includes P.O. boxes.\nIt's either a freak occurrence or something else is wrong.

the logic is to reach people who may not be at their computers when you are at yours or vice versa ... there can be a myriad of reasons from business to personal ... cell carriers sometimes have that service provided on their websites or you can use conventional email programs like yahoo

Look on your mailbox -_-

This is because the mails are sent to someone by using your mail id. It dont mean that they are sending the mail from your mail box. But rather they are duping your mail id. And the return Path on this mails is your ID so all the mails which are not delivered are bouncing to your mail box. To ignore those you can do following\n1. Create a filter for the mails.\n     Options -->Filters\n     Add the mail ID or subject from where you are getting this mail to be filtered and just reditrect those mail to any folder. So you wont be bothered with this mailes in you inbox. \n2. Change your password ASAP

Its to aid the automated sorting system.  Used alot by junk mailers.

There are typically 2 reasons.  \nThe emails are too big with attachments. Each email system has limits to the size of a single email.\nOtherwise, the home email has a spam filter that thinks that the job email is spam, so it is hiding it from you.  If you use Yahoo mail for home, check the Junk mail box.  Most email systems (Outlook too) will have such a box, and will allow you to identify a possible-spam email as a safe email, and remember this for future emails from your job email.\nFor more help, you need to explain what kind of email system you are using at both ends (i.e. web based, yahoo, gmail, outlook exchange, etc)

If your box is on the street, I believe he is supposed to check for outgoing mail every day, but taking it from a box on your house is a courtesy, not a requirement.  If the carrier has no mail to deliver to the box he is not obligated to pick up any outgoing mail, even if the flag is up (but most will).

So that they can fool the spam protection engine on the mail server. BUt todays spam ENGINES are smart enough to sort them out.

In some places they still hand sort envelopes.  Rather than memorize all of the possible zip codes and where they go to it is quicker to look at the state or city.  Otherwise you could end up getting routed incorrectly and take an extra day or so to get your mail.

It i supposed to be a fereral offense to put anything besides mail in the mail box, i.e. non-mail newspaper or fliers.  Only items that have passed through the post office and have had postage paid are supposed to go in there.  It used to be a $300 fine to use a mailbox for bussiness other than official US Postal Service deliveries.

If its automated, its a way of making sure your email is a 'live' addres (ie , you use it regularly) so they can track whether or not you've opened it and then add your address to a mailing list for advertising etc.

It's a courtesy for customers who are just dropping off mail and don't need to come in and do other transactions at the counter. It's also to allow them to deposit mail before and after the office is closed, in the event that it doesn't have 24/7 access to the inside mail drops.

Typically this is a bad idea.  If you send something back to them, they will know it is a valid email and that you check it.  This means that they will continue to send stuff there.  Also they run through email addresses nonstop so they just will switch if you send them alot of stuff.
