In the first years of the 16th century, wooden mailboxes - the so-called “tambours” - were installed in Florence. They were located near the main church communities and had a slot at the top, into which an anonymous letter with accusations against enemies of the state could be dropped, unnoticed by prying eyes.

In the 16th century, stone mailboxes were installed near the Cape of Good Hope by the crews of British ships to transmit letters to other ships. Dutch sailors also had similar stone boxes. In present-day Poland, Legnica is claimed as the birthplace of the mailbox, where they first appeared in 1633. Mailboxes are mentioned in the documents of the city post office of Paris, founded in 1653, and their invention is attributed to Renoir de Villaye.

In the 18th century, captains of ships sailing from England to America used canvas bags to collect correspondence, which were hung in hotel lobbies and coffee shops to collect letters. In Austria, the postman carried a mailbox with him on his belt.
Mailboxes in Germany were large in size, distinguished by elegant decoration and wood carvings. Express mail boxes were created in London (Great Britain). The sender put a letter and a coin into such a box to pay for services and pressed a special lever, with the help of which a signal was sent to the nearest post office that the letter had arrived. Having received the signal, a courier was sent from the post office to pick up the letter.

The U.S. Post Office began installing mailboxes to collect mail in the 1850s at post offices and at street corners in major cities. Mailboxes were first hung on lamp posts. As mail volumes grew, the Post Office gradually replaced small mailboxes with larger models. Install a free-standing mailbox on four supports with the inscription U.S. Mail (US Post) was first proposed in 1894 after experience with successful use mailboxes of this design in Canada. Mailboxes of this design quickly became commonplace at the intersections of American cities. Unlike Canadian mailboxes, which were painted red, American mailboxes were originally dark green to avoid confusion with fire-fighting equipment, then red and blue in the 1950s, and finally... completely blue with a contrasting inscription. The advent of the automobile also influenced the design of mailboxes in the United States, and in the late 1930s a special chute or spout was added to allow a letter to be deposited by driving up to a curbside mailbox without getting out of the car.

Mailboxes first appeared in Russia on the streets of St. Petersburg and Moscow in 1848. In 1928, 200 boxes were installed on Moscow trams where Muscovites could drop off correspondence. During a tram stop near the main post office, postal workers took letters from boxes installed on the tram.
