Plugin Overview
Post Office is a plugin I developed for my own SMP, Block Horizon SMP and wanted to share with the community. With the plugin installed, you have the ability to turn any barrel on your server in to a functioning Post Office system that will allow any player to place items in to the barrel, but only the owner to remove the items. The plugin works best when paired with WorldGuard.

Configuring the Plugin
This plugin works great out of the box and uses the default Post Office barrel name of “pobox”. To set up a barrel as a post box, simply rename the barrel with an anvil to match your custom name.
The name used to define a post office barrel can be changed by using the in game command or editing the configuration file in Plugins/PostOffice.
custom-barrel-name: name
For example, “custom-barrel-name: PostBox” will set the plugin to function with all barrels that have been renamed to “PostBox” using an anvil in game.
Command: /setcustombarrelname name
For example, “/setcustombarrelname POBOX” will set your plugin to only function with barrels that have been named POBOX.
