To dream that receive mail, indicates that you need to communicate or re-establish contact with someone from your present/past.
It may also represent messages from your unconscious or intuition. The mail may also be a pun on a "male" in your life.
If you receive mail from someone you don't know, then it suggests that some hidden aspect of yourself is trying to tell you something.
