Today (Mother's Day) I took a birthday card to the mailboxes next to the adult pool in Osceola Hills. The box was locked!
Anyone know why? I'll try again tomorrow (Monday).

I don't know if the mail drop box is the same as we have at Tamarind Grove. We don't have a lock that is visible on the outside. Do you?

I'm guessing that someone mailed a larger item, maybe a box, that didn't drop all the way into the mail container inside the postal station. The result was that the door was jammed by the box and you were prevented from opening the door.

Why not just go to another mail station?
