No, the steel doesen't go into the box, and the box is just a crummy
black plastic one with the door ripped off it. Methinks the plastic box
may survive bat whacks and spring back better than the sheet metal ones
will.

Yeah, but wouldn't it be fun to watch a bunch of
teenagers come down the road and swing a bat at
one of those mail boxes made of 1/2" steel
mentioned by another poster. Bat would just break
or be thrown back around with such force it would
put a heck of a dent in the car, break a window or
maybe the kid swinging it.
