I know locked containers aren't coded yet, but whenever they are there's gonna be an issue with mail boxes. They are more expensive than building a shack and locking it, yet they probably wouldn't provide a very different functionality. You can build a shack, call it Mail box, lock it and tell people to drag notes through the door.

A mail box costs: 2000 wood, 900 iron, plus two iron tools.
A shack and lock costs 3000 wood, 200 iron, plus one iron tool.

Which are the current plans for mailboxes (if any)?

Could they be just a mix of building and envelope code that shows "Full/Empty" near its name? You got the key, you can empty the mailbox "envelope". You want to drop a mail, you drag it through its lock. :?

That's simply ridiculous. 2000 grams of wood? It should be more like 600, and maybe 250 iron. Thank god it doesn't take steel.
