Unless you are living in an area where it's a known fact that there
have been "mail box" thefts I don't think it's worth worrying about.

Here, there was a spate of instances of folks having checks stolen
from their mailboxes, washed and then rewritten (payable to CASH,
etc.)

The Uniball 207 ballpoint says that it is protection from washing checks,
etc. I use one all the time for check writing.

OTOH, I am not sure how many folks still use checks to pay bills!

Me. Makes it handier than a credit card to see when and how much I paid
for something, even long ago. I suppose I could keep a file of credit
card statements in date order - but I don't.

Of course I would take a package with valuable contents directly to
the post office.
