{{quote|That's a new Mailbox SP, isn't it? Wow, neat! Did [[Mario|you]] get some mail?|Koops|Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door}}
The '''Mailbox SP''' is a device [[Mario]] has in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. It is available from the beginning of the game as one of Mario's [[Key item|Important Thing]]s. The Mailbox SP visually resembles a [[Game Boy Advance#Game Boy Advance SP|Game Boy Advance SP]] and is used to receive emails. Mario receives emails from [[Jolene]], [[Princess Peach]], and various other people throughout the game, mostly from people whom Mario has helped in the [[Trouble Center]], as well as the [[Rogueport Direct Mail Service|RDM]].

Whenever Mario receives emails from somebody, the Mailbox SP rings, usually with the theme from ''[[Super Mario World]]'' that plays during the cutscene where Mario destroys a [[castle]] after defeating one of the [[Koopalings]]. If Mario receives an email from Peach, it rings with the [[Title (Super Mario World)|Title]] theme from ''Super Mario World''. Whenever an email to Mario comes from an anonymous sender, such as Jolene (who signs her emails as "X") or [[Grubba]] (who anonymously sends Mario threatening emails), the ringtone is the [[Ice Land]] theme from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. When Mario recieves [[Goombella]]'s email in the remake, the ringtone is a sample of Goombella's new theme.

In the Nintendo Switch remake, the Mailbox SP has its own subsection of the gear menu rather than being under Useful Items. When Mario receives an email, the player can press {{button|switch|+}} to instantly open the email while the notification is displayed.

===Story===
====[[Professor Frankly|Frankly]]: E-mail (GCN) / About email (Switch)====
This email is received when Mario passes [[Petalburg]] after visiting [[Kroop]] in Chapter 1. It is received along with the [[#RDM Registration|RDM Registration]] email.

Hello, Mario! Working hard? Professor Frankly here, in e-form! (Switch)<br>
<br>
It’s highly likely you’ll receive emails like this one while you’re on your journey, so check your mail often!<br>
<br>
I actually have nothing more to say than that so I hope all goes well for you, and I look forward to getting more information on those [[Crystal Stars]]! (GCN)<br>

====Frankly: Useful Buttons====
This email is exclusive to the remake. It is received after [[Koops]] joins Mario's party in Chapter 1.
<blockquote>
Hello, Mario! Still working hard? Professor Frankly here, in e-form! Again! I do have more to say, as it turns out.

[[Goombella]] was eager to join your side, and she won't be the last! I'm sure you'll gain a bunch of additional partners as you explore the world and progress through your harrowing adventure.

If you do, there's a quick way to swap which partner is walking alongside you. Just hold down {{button|Switch|L}} to access a doodad called the Partner Ring!

Say you find yourself stuck in a rut, unable to progress, aimless and panic-stricken. First, calm down. Then swap pals with the Partner Ring, explore a bit more, and see if anything clicks into place in that noble noggin o' yours.

One other thing! I'm betting you usually pop into the menu by pressing {{button|switch|minus}} or {{button|switch|plus}}, but did you know you can open it to specific tabs by pressing {{button|switch|Up}}{{button|switch|Left}}{{button|switch|Right}}{{button|switch|Down}}?

{{button|switch|Up}} for Gear<br>
{{button|switch|Left}} for Partner<br>
{{button|switch|Right}} for Badges<br>
{{button|switch|Down}} for Journal

Convenient, right? Keep that in mind to save yourself some precious time.

Stay safe...and good luck out there!

-Professor Frankly
</blockquote>

====[[Toad Bros. Bazaar|Toad Bros.]]: Your order is ready!====
This email is exclusive to the remake. It is received after holding the [[Diamond Star]] in front of [[The Thousand-Year Door]] and the order for the [[Contact Lens]] has been placed at the [[Toad Bros. Bazaar]].
<blockquote>
Dear Mario, 

Thank you for shopping at the Toad Bros. Bazaar. We're writing to let you know that the Contact Lens you ordered is now available to pick up at our shop.

Assuming you can still see well enough to read this email, please stop by at your earliest convenience.

-Toad Bros. Bazaar
</blockquote>

====Frankly: A must-have badge====
This email is exclusive to the remake. It is received after speaking with Frankly about getting the [[Blimp Ticket]] from [[Don Pianta]] and leaving the east side of Rogueport.
<blockquote>
Hello, Mario! Still working hard? Professor Frankly here, in e-form again!

There's something I forgot to tell you! I highly recommend that you look into obtaining a certain badge.

It's called [[First Attack]]. If you have that badge equipped, you can take care of weak foes with a [[First Strike]] instead of fully battling it out!

The [[Lovely Howz of Badges|badge shop]] in [[Rogueport]] has it available for purchase. You can get there by exiting the second floor of the inn. So...stop reading this and go get yourself a First Attack badge!

From, Professor Frankly
</blockquote>

====[[Koopley]]: How's life?====
In the original game, this email is received on Mario's way to the station in Rogueport after getting the [[Blimp Ticket]] between Chapters 2 and 3. In the remake, it is received shortly after Mario leaves Frankly's house after using the [[Emerald Star]].

====[[Jolene|Anonymous]]: No title (GCN) / No subject (Switch) 1====
As part of Chapter 3's storyline, after Mario reaches rank 10 in the [[Glitz Pit]], [[Jolene]] sends a series of anonymous emails to Mario, hoping to enlist his help to defeat [[Grubba]]. She uses capital and small letters alternatively in words and ends her emails with "FrOm X". Her emails usually instruct Mario to discover what is happening around the Glitz Pit, which includes Grubba's atrocities. Grubba also sends two threatening emails to Mario, warning him not to snoop around. These emails have normal lettercases and are not signed.

In the Japanese version of the game, Jolene's emails are instead written in katakana alone and ends with "Ｘヨリ" (which translates to "FROM X").

We pressed the shopkeeper for further comment, but regret that his words are unprintable here...But we did learn from the little missus that there will be a double-point sale for all RDM readers! Just show her this screen in the next 15 minutes to double your points on any purchase!

Local mystic [[Merluvlee]] (age 25) was taken to the hospital today, followed
quickly by hordes of concerned fans. Luckily, according to a spokesperson
for the hospital, Merluvlee suffered from nothing more than a severe case
of indigestion caused by a wild binge on eight [[Mushroom Steak]]s. The divine
diviner exclaimed that her "aura was brimming with the power of steak,"
but this reporter can't help but wonder why she failed to predict the
gastrointestinal adventure in the first place...<br>

volatile red liquid. After a few tense moments, authorities identified
the liquid as a spicy condiment, and the businessman was subsequently

In a shocking series of event today, local authorities report that
[[Zess T.]] (age 55) delivered a left hook to the jaw of gadabout [[Flavio]]
(age 25) late this very afternoon. Our investigation has revealed that
the cause of the feisty fisticuffs may have been Zess T.'s anger that a
shipment of gourmet ingredients spoiled on the dock because Flavio had
held up the dock crew with a marathon two-day tale of high-seas
adventure. While Flavio is recovering from temporary memory loss,
Zess T. has already been approached by a [[Glitz Pit]] talent scout, Don
Goombatti. "I think the kid's got spunk. We'll take the world by storm!"

===="Special Final Issue!" section====
In the Japanese, French, German, Italian and Spanish versions of the original ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', the final email features an additional "hidden" section {{file link|ResultRDMS.png|if the player scroll downs for an extended period of time}}. This portion was removed from the English version, despite that the statement alluding to its existence remains, and was restored in the remake.

<blockquote>









You found us!






☆Special Final Issue!<br>
RDM hasn't stopped the digital presses yet! Time to cover some secret corners!

☆Secret News Corner!<br>
Urgent news just came across our desks about a certain missing quiz-show host, [[Chuck Quizmo]]. We've received insider info that his absence can be blamed on his upcoming show, "HEY, Who's Fibbin'?!"
Sadly, the troubled production has kept him too busy to join for this adventure...but this reporter wishes him good luck! It's sure to be a hit when it premieres. See you next time, Chuck—we'll count on it!

☆Secret Cooking Corner<br>
If you're seeking a truly special dish, try adding an item known as "[[Point Swap]]"!
This will let you flip the intensity of whatever you're cookin' up. Take an item with a low effect, mix it with Point Swap, and...wowie zowie! You've gotta try this!

And now, dear readers, you have truly, finally, and honestly reached the end of our reporting. Thank you so much for reading all the way to the end. Will we ever meet again? As long as newsletter emails remain the dominant form of community reporting, there's always a chance!</blockquote>

In the French translation, [[Vanna T.]] is mentioned instead of Chuck Quizmo.

====RDM Extra Issue====
This email is exclusive to the remake, and is received upon the meeting of the following conditions.

1. [[Whacka]] has been hit 8 times in [[Keelhaul Key]].

2. [[Bonetail]] has been defeated.

3. Excluding menu and loading screens, around 30 minutes have passed since both of the prior two conditions have been met.

Upon receiving this email, Whacka will appear in the Pit of 100 Trials, replacing Bonetail as the final boss of the pit.

This email is received in [[Petal Meadows]] after Chapter 1 is cleared.
<blockquote>
My Dearest Mario,<br>
I send this letter in the hope that it reaches you safely. I am being held against my will in some strange place. Though I do not know where I am, I remain unharmed and in relative comfort. Those who have captured me seem to be after the map I sent you earlier. They may be hoping to use it to find objects called "Crystal Stars". I do not know what they are planning, but I have a feeling it is not anything positive. 
<br>
Mario, please collect these Crystal Stars before they do. You must! They are already aware that you have the map, so please be very careful. (GCN)<br> They may be aware that you have the map, so please be very careful. (Switch)
<br>
And please...don't worry about me.<br>

====Peach: Be Careful!====
This email is received in [[Boggly Woods]] after Chapter 2 is cleared.
<blockquote>
Dear Mario,<br>
I'm sure you're very concerned about me...but please know I'm fine! I'm actually more worried about you. The fiends who kidnapped me are searching desperately for the Crystal Stars. I'll try to learn what I can about them. I'll email you again if I uncover anything. OK? You must know I miss you. Lately I've dreamt about our days back in the castle. I hope we'll spend carefree days there again soon.<br>

====Peach: Fiendish plan!====
This email is received in west Rogueport after Chapter 3 is cleared.
<blockquote>
Dearest Mario,<br>
I have uncovered something terrible. These things...the [[X-Naut]]s...they're
planning to take control of the world!<br>
It's to that end that they're searching for the Crystal Stars. I still don't know what the Crystal Stars do, but you must try to get them all... (GCN)<br>
It’s to that end that they’re searching for the Crystal Stars and trying to claim a legendary treasure.

====Peach: Evil treasure!====
This email is received when Mario leaves the pipe room that leads to [[Twilight Town]] after clearing Chapter 4.
<blockquote>
My dear Mario,<br>
I have finally learned what the legendary treasure is. It is the spirit of a demon!<br>
The X-Nauts plan to revive this thousand-year-old monster and use its power to take over the world! They're collecting the Crystal Stars so they can open the Thousand-Year-Door...they'll find this demon's spirit...but the only thing that can keep it locked away is the Crystal Stars themselves!

This email is received when Mario returns to Rogueport after clearing Chapter 5.
<blockquote>
Dearest Mario,<br>
I have good news! I don't know where I'm being held, but
there's an odd computer called [[TEC]] here. By cooperating with this TEC, I've managed to obtain some of these fiends' data. TEC is currently analyzing it...and strange as it may sound, I trust him. Once his analysis is done, I should be able to provide you with details of their plans. I'll email you again once I learn more. Be good, OK?<br>

====[[Jolene]]: Doing well?====
<blockquote>
Mario,<br>
Or rather, the Great Gonzales...I realized that I never thanked you for handling my request, so I decided to email you.<br>
<br>
I never thought for a moment that you, a former champion, would end up taking care of the wrestling trunks for me.<br>
<br>
After you left here, know what Mush said to me? He said, "There are some things that can only be understood by fighting." He's an odd one, Mush. He's actually training now...yes, he's planning a comeback!<br>

You should come by the Glitz Pit if you get some time. You're just the type of star the fans crave, you know?<br>

Take care, Jolene

====[[Prince Mush]]: Accept my challenge!====
This email is exclusive to the remake. Although Mush himself does not have a trouble, the player must receive Jolene's email first before they can receive this one. 
<blockquote>Hello, Mario!

This is Mush, Jolene's younger brother and first champion of the Glitz Pit. Remember me?

Thanks for helping me out recently! Still not sure what happened, but I do know that if you and my big sis hadn't saved me, well... I get chills just thinking about it.

Anyway, I was wondering if you heard about my big comeback. I've been pushing all of my limits with the most-punishing training regimen of my entire career.

I'm finally feeling and seeing the results... so it's time for Prince Mush to make a grand return to the ring!

I want you to witness the fruits of my labor, Mario. I asked my sis for help, and she's arranged a special Exhibition Match just for the two of us! New champ versus original champ!

If you accept my challenge, I'll be waiting for you in the Glitz Pit! Prepare for a Prince Mush performance like you've never seen before! (I'm actually not sure that you have seen me battle before, so just believe me when I say...I was good.)

Don't leave me waiting, Great Gonzales!

<br>
By the way: have you heard? Dried Bouquets are not flowers that have withered and gone dry. They are actually flowers that have had the clocks of their lives adjusted to tick just a little slower than normal flowers. I hope you will take the time to stop and smell these delicate flowers.<br>

In fact, I would like you to come visit me again with the above-mentioned item. Yours in spiciness.<br>

====[[Eve]]: Thank You====
<blockquote>
How are you, Mario? This is Eve from Twilight Town. Remember me?<br>
<br>
After a lot of soul-searching, I've found that I'm truly happy.<br>
<br>
I may not be able to forget the hard times, or even completely remember then, but I've been thinking things over and I believe that my sad past paves the way to my current happiness. Is that deep?<br>
<br>
Anyway, I can't think about that stuff all the time. The kids play all day... then they get hungry and cry and scream, so I'm pretty busy all day, every day.<br>
<br>
The kids would love to see you again, so please drop by next time you're in the area!<br>

Fondly yours, Eve

===Special===
This email is sent from [[Goombella]] to [[Mario]] at the end of the game, but it is not found in the Mailbox SP if it is checked later. Mario shares this email with [[Luigi]].
<blockquote>
Dear [[Mario]],

What's up? [[Goombella]] here! I'm still here working with [[Professor Frankly]]. We beat the [[Shadow Queen]], but there's tons of [[Rogueport]] lore we still don't get... So, my research with the professor goes on and on.

With the info I gathered with you, we have lots of great leads now, though! Mario... Like I always said, every myth contains a kernel of truth. Speaking of which, know [[Dried Mushroom|what]] was in the chest that the professor recovered? You're totally not gonna believe me when I tell you. It's... A secret! Ha ha ha ha ha! But I'll tell you next time I see you.

As part of my research, I did go back to many of the places we visited... And I saw everyone we traveled with, too!

[[Koops]] is living peacefully in [[Petalburg]] with [[Koopley|his dad]] and [[Koopie Koo]]. And, Mario... Guess what Koops wants to do now! He wants to become mayor of Petalburg and live there in peace! Can you imagine? Still, it might just be perfect for him, come to think of it. He's so much more of an adult now than when you left [[Rogueport]]! ...Still, I think Koopie Koo pretty much has him wrapped around her little finger!

[[Flurrie]]'s back on stage in a big way, and the crowds are totally ecstatic. And, the play she's doing right now is the story of our adventure! Yeah! It's called "Paper Mario"! I saw it twice! It was totally the best play ever! And somehow, [[Doopliss]] had joined the troupe as an actor! Who saw that coming? His transformation skills are serving him well, but it still kind of creeps me out...

Oh, and little [[Yoshi Kid|Yoshi]]? Yeah, he's fighting solo in the [[Glitz Pit]]! He says he's getting pretty close to a title match, even! Isn't that just ADORABLE? Oh, yeah, he's calling himself "The Great Gonzales Jr." in the ring, by the way. It's sorta silly, but kinda cute, too, don'tcha think? Oh, and... Wait, I have to get this exactly right or he'll get like, SO mad at me... He, uh, said that he could "totally take you in the ring now, so bring it!" I guess he doesn't change... Isn't that too cute?

[[Vivian]]'s gone back to hang out with her sisters. Family is important, after all... Now that the [[Shadow Queen]] has been defeated, I don't think [[Beldam]]'s into evil. Oh, and Beldam also promised me she would never be mean to Vivian ever again. Yup, I think [[Three Shadows|the three sirens]] are going to live peacefully from now on... But you should totally go visit her sometime. (GCN)<br>
[[Vivian]]'s gone back to hang out with her sisters. She wants to give them another chance. Now that the [[Shadow Queen]] has been defeated, I don't think [[Beldam]]'s into evil. Oh, and Beldam also promised me she would never be mean to Vivian ever again. Yup, I think [[Three Shadows|the three sisters]] are going to live peacefully from now on... But you should totally go visit her sometime. (Switch)

[[Bobbery]] goes out to sea every day now with [[Cortez]]'s [[Black Skull|ship]]... I think his soul has healed. I ran into him on [[Keelhaul Key]] by accident the other day, which was nice. He was so happy, I thought he was going to blow up on me for a second there. You know... I bet [[Scarlette]] is looking down on him and smiling right now. Oh, and I almost forgot... Everyone on Keelhaul Key is well, and they say hello.

[[Ms. Mowz]] is still running the badge shop in [[Rogueport]], so she's happy. She comes over to [[Professor Frankly|Frankly]]'s sometimes to visit... But, as usual, as soon as she sets foot outside the shop, she turns into a [[badge]]-ninja. She said just the other day that she had found some super-rare badge, actually. That's our globe-trotting, mystery-making, flirting, little badge thief, huh?

Oh, yeah... In my travels, I heard a rumor that [[Lord Crump]] and [[Grodus]] were both still alive. I guess that makes them pretty tenacious baddies, doesn't it, Mario? But they've mellowed a lot, just like [[Beldam]] has, and I don't expect more trouble. Plus, I hear Grodus is just a head, which really cuts down on mischief-making.

Speaking of miracle survivals... Guess [[TEC|whose favorite calculator]] is still computing? He says he really wants to see you and [[Princess Peach|Peach]] again!

Well, I'm totally rambling at this point, so I guess I'd better wrap it up... I just wanna say, even though things got tough, I'm grateful for our time together. And... There is one thing that kind of weighed on me and I never got to express to you. See, I... Well... Maybe that's best kept a secret.

So, please say hi to [[Princess Peach|Peach]] for me, OK? 'Til we meet again!

:Your friend, [[Goombella]].

The paragraph about [[Ms. Mowz]] appears if she joined [[Mario]]'s party at that time, and [[Yoshi Kid]]'s name the player gave him is used.
