Abstract: A system and method for providing electronic notification to a user concerning the delivery of postal mail. The system and method for electronic notification employs a transmitting station which is deployed by a user in the receptacle in which the user receives postal mail and a computer device that provides the primary user interface for the system and method for electronic notification. The transmitting station is oriented in the postal mail receptacle so that when postal mail is inserted therein, an integrated notification lever is moved from its resting position to a second position. When the notification lever is moved from its resting position a notification of mail signal is generated and transmitted to the computer device. Upon receipt of the notification of mail signal, the computer device displays a mail delivered message on its display and provides an interface to view such messages.
