The handle is positioned to rest on the lower portion of the mail delivery vehicle window opening to support the mailbox door when in open position. Also, the interior of the mailbox includes a mail holder to retain outgoing mail in a conveniently accessible position so that the mail delivery person may make a quick and easy pickup of the mail.
