The funniest mailbox incident I've ever heard of is at my sisters place in Atkinson NH.

After 9-11 remember the big anthrax scare where everyone was worried about the white powder. Well someone put a letter in her mailbox and there was white powder coming out of it so she called the police department who called the fire department who came down and, with a chainsaw, cut down her mailbox by sawing through the post. They put the whole thing inside two big clear plastic bags and heafted it on to the back of the fire truck. She said it was an odd sight seeing the firetruck with her mailbox on the back followed by a police escort driving down the street.

It turned out to be just white powder after the tests came back and they never did find out who did it. It was probably some kids...
