Default Low level letterbox prohibition bill

Royal mail support a gradual change to the US style of box at the end of a
drive or outside of a flat.

Besides if you have a very low box, surely if there is a flood you are in
trouble in any case.
Bring on the drones.

It doesn't seem to make much difference where I live. On multiple
occasions I've had the card instructing me to go to the distribution
centre to pick up a package that is too large. On collecting the "package"
I find that it is two or more packages held together with a red rubber
band and if removed they would have all individually fitted through my
letter box with ease.
