A mailbox assembly includes a mailbox and a mail status indication feature. The mail status indication feature or apparatus includes a base, an indicator arm carried on the base and displaceable between a home position, a first deployed position and a second deployed position and an adjustment feature for releasably holding the indicator arm in the home position, the first deployed position and the second deployed position.

A mailbox comprises an outer shell and an inner shell mounted within a hollow interior of the outer shell, the inner shell defining a hollow interior for receiving mail contents and further defining one or more voids with the outer shell. A door is mounted of a movement to selectively open or close one end of the outer and inner shells. A camera is concealed in one void adjacent the front end, the camera being configured to capture an image in front of the mailbox when the door is moved to at least partially expose the hollow interior for receiving mail contents. A transmitter and a receiver are mounted adjacent the front end to generate an output signal when the mail contents break the light beam therebetween. A flag rotates on the outer shell and actuates a switch to annunciate a presence of the mail contents within the mailbox.

A safety mailbox assembly, comprising: a substantially hollow and post-less top structure configured with a top portion of a reversible connection at a base of the top structure and including at least one mail box disposed therein; a substantially hollow and post-less bottom structure configured with a bottom portion of the reversible connection; wherein the top portion and the bottom portion connect together to reversibly connect the top structure and the bottom structure.

Disclosed is a mailbox mount. The mailbox mount comprising a vertical post with a lower end of the post fixed to the ground. Further, the mailbox mount comprising a pivot arm rigidly fixed on the upper end of the post. Further, the mailbox mount comprising an extension arm rotatably positioned on the pivot arm, wherein a first end of the extension arm supports a mailbox, wherein the extension arm pivots on the pivot arm to move the extension arm and mailbox laterally.

A smart postal mailbox device is disclosed that incorporates a camera and an imaging processing capability. When the device is in place inside a postal mailbox and is activated by a content element being placed in, or removed from, the mailbox, the camera obtains an image of the interior of the mailbox, which it then analyzes by first using pre-processing to correct for geometric distortion. The image is then decomposed using vision related algorithms into a discreet information dataset. This discrete data set is compared to previous data sets using a neural decision tree. If appropriate, the device transmits a message informing a remote user of the current state of the mailbox.

A mailbox flag cover includes a weather resistant main body having at least one indicia element imprinted along the front facing surface. The back surface is coated with an adhesive material, and the main body is sized to cover a mailbox flag. The flag cover can also include a second indicia that is positioned opposite to the first indicia, and a weather strip that is located between the indicia elements.
