Abstract: A mail delivery notification arrangement for maximizing the efficiency of notification and mail pick up on a regular basis. In this embodiment, the mail drop off location utilizes a bar code, RFID or other identifying and notification methods as input to the process. When a letter or package is received or placed at a mail drop off location, the unique identifier is read and recognized by the delivery process agent. The delivery process agent will log the date and time of delivery, quantity of items delivered, and types of items delivered (e.g. certified mail, registered mail, regular mail, overnight package). The data is then transferred by the delivery process to the system's database server(s) which notify the corresponding user of the mail or package drop off. The notification to the user can contain one or more of the following relevant attributes: date and time of receipt at the drop off location, types and number of items received, and sender's name and address.
