What are PIN codes? They appear to be analogous to ZIP codes, and there's a few articles listing PIN Codes for cities or regions in India. But what are the codes? There's no "PIN Codes" article. -- Mikeblas 15:27, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

I found some updated info about the postal services in india which Indian Postal Department is offering. I propose including A layman's look at the Indian Postal Department link in external links section. This information would really add to this article.

Yes, some more basics could perhaps be added in this article for a layman. Like, the article doesn't hint that even within India, there is something called registered post/registry, which is slightly more expensive than normal post, but you get receipt. The article only talks about registered post in the context of international posts.

Mail Transmission Post office collects letters and parcels either through its counters or by installing letterboxes. People drop letters in these boxes at any time according to their convenience and post office collects these once or twice everyday during office hours. You may find these boxes outside every post office and also at some specific places for the convenience of the public. But have you ever noticed that in some places there may be letterboxes with different colours like red, green, blue and yellow. Why are they so? Actually the main purpose of installing letterboxes with different colours is to segregate mails of different destination at the time of receiving them. This facilitates quick sorting and delivery of letters. Let us see which box collects which type of mail: ! Red boxes are meant for collection of mails, which are not local. ! Green boxes are meant for collection of local mail. ! Blue boxes are meant for collection of mails addressed to metro cities. ! Yellow boxes are meant for collection of mails addressed to all capital cities. Babloo2764 ( talk) 07:56, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
Is mail not a mass pronoun in Indian English? I ask because it appears on both the page and talk page with the plural "mails". Otherwise, I'd just change it. — Preceding
