The mailbox comes in four states. 📫 closed mailbox with raised flag means mail is waiting; 📬 open mailbox with raised flag shows the letters; 📭 open with lowered flag is empty; 📪 closed with lowered flag is nothing new. Together they mean mail, post and “you’ve got mail” — newsletters, letters, DMs (“check your 📫”). 📮 is the red postbox for sending. All are original 2010 emoji. Related: ✉️ on the email guide, 📦 package.
