#1 Here in my neck of the woods.
A number of us during the summer months freeze water bottles for the Mail-person and place it in the mailbox, lip up the flag about about 1 hr. before they come by.

For known incoming package delivery people, we place cold drinks in a mini Igloo on the front porch with ICE Block.

With a "GRAB A COLD ONE ON US" sign.
