owned our house for 2 yrs in a neighborhood where everyone has their own mailboxes along the street, and had no idea wtf the flag on our mailbox was for. just learned this week that the flag is to signal to the mailman to pick up outgoing mail in the box. in the past i'd just put my outgoing mail in the box and they'd pick it up the next time i got mail.

is this common knowledge how these flags work?

i thought to indicate that new mail arrived so you can look out the window to see if there is new mail, but the postman is too lazy to put them up on everyone's mailbox every day. i figured the flag is like the mail icon on gmail or aol.

You leave an envelope in your mailbox (flag up) on Christmas Eve marked "To: My USPS Mail Carrier*" with a Christmas card and some cash. If you're alpha, you can sign it "Love," otherwise use "happy holidays" or some shit.

* Replace with your carrier's actual name, which I presume you do not know.

lol that you basically need to park one of the three characters outside the mailbox and wait for the tape or the game becomes nearly impossible to win. Old school video game developers were not afraid to fuck players over.

This is mostly used by boomers who are sending cards or paying bills. Teens got wise to this and now check every mailbox with the flag up to see what they can grab. So nobody uses the flag anymore.

You're asking for identity theft if you actually use this in 2023. Just use a drop box for the few times a year that you actually have to mail something.

Now that you're guaranteed to get at least one item of junk mail every day, there's not much point to the flag, because the mailman will always see your outgoing mail.
