Gee, I guess that means that WOW! curbside boxes are not absolutely
required and there is a way in which you can apply for door slot
service
or to have your external mailbox located adjacent to your door... :-O

Imagine that...

You can google for "definition of rural" if you don't quite understand
the concept, Evan. Not everyone lives in high rise apartments or tract
homes in the burbs.

There is no ****ing way a rural postal carrier is delivering mail to
anyone's ****ing door.

Well golly gee willickers. I think my 1 1/2 car wide road with less
than 20 houses in 1 mile would be called rural. Every time I get a
package too big for the box the postman drives up my 1/10 mile long
driveway and leaves the package on the front porch along with the rest
of the mail for that day. Only time I get a notice to pick something up
at the post office is when it needs to be signed for and no one is here
to sign.

Our delivery woman leaves the package (usually a Fedex package) at the door,
rings the bell, and then goes back down the driveway to stick the rest of the
mail in the box. We live in a new subdivision (20ish houses) with individual
street-side boxes.
