2D barcode on the letter,, package,, etc..

2D barcode on your mailbox and/or doorbell or somewhere convenient to scan. Postal workers/Amazon/whomever scans your mail, for which the code has been hashed by the date code or whatever for some security.

       To facilitate remote scanning from a passing postal vehicle, just adjust the spacings of your white picket fence. This has the added benefit of making the Moiré effect more disturbing.

       My front door (on which are mounted my letterbox and doorbell) has a convenient 2D unique identifying code on it, in the form of Arabic numerals.

       My front porch has that sort of technology, as does my neighbor. But it doesn't prevent him (1217) from getting my mail (1277) and vice-versa.
