extension-mailbox

An 4-foot-high L-or-T-shaped bracket of timber with a mailbox mounted at the "upper" end; you temporarily clamp it to your existing mailbox so that the "auxiliary" mailbox extends out over the piled-up snowbank; with this simple/inexpensive set-up, the mail-carrier can still reach your box from his vehicle, but the huge blades on the D.O.T.'s snowplows will simply pass underneath the box, allowing the trucks' drivers' to just plow right on through without worrying about damaging your box.
Constructing and installing an extension-mailbox assembly is simple 'n' easy, costs very little (all you need are two or three large C-clamps, an ordinary plastic/metal mailbox, a couple 2X4s, and a little hardware to cobble it all together; these ordinary/everday items can often be obtained for free or next-to-nothing if you "go scrounging" at da nearest metal-scrapyard and/or are good buddies wif da local junk-dealer), and eliminates mailbox-plowing costs and/or tons (literally!) of snow-shoveling. Why glumly shell out twenty or thirty bucks after each and every blizzard to have someone drive out to your home and plow away the snow from your curbside, just so that you can receive a few pieces of junk mail each week???

Sandhills mailbox golf

One of the reasons the sandhills is a great place to live, since sandhills golf is more interesting than city mailbox sports, as long as the mailbox stays open while you're on the hole.
The closest mailbox will usually be a par 11 or higher, so you can play sandhills mailbox golf all day long if you're playing 18 holes.

temporary mail

Disposable email addressing, also known as DEA or dark mail, refers to an approach where a unique email address is used for every contact, entity, or for a limited number of times or uses. The benefit is that if anyone compromises the address or utilizes it in connection with email abuse, the address owner can easily cancel (or "dispose" of) it without affecting any of their other contacts.
Temporary mail can be obtained in special services, for example One-off.email
