I seem to remember actual mailboxes back when I was a kid! Joking a little bit, as I know they exist, but I have not had one since I last lived with my parents in the 80s. Unless you have an older house and/or some property these days, it seems all the housing developments have those locked mail bin stations throughout neighborhoods.
I don't think I could stand the stress of having anything delivered to that type of unsecured mailbox these days, nor would I want to leave anything valuable in the outgoing. I receive ALL of my card shipments at my office and I take anything I mail to the PO.
Porch package robbers have become so commonplace now and a mailbox is even less risky for those D-Bags to steal from.
