When I google for a similar mailbox as mine, I find plenty of the type I
have that do NOT have any flag.

This one, for example, looks kind of like mine (but I don't have a lock on
mine):

It's all metal so anything that indicates mail inside can't be purely on an
electrical circuit.


How about a touch switch that comes on when someone touches the box.
Reset it when you've opened the box.
