Claim:
1. A theft-resistant wall mount mailbox, comprising: a housing having a rectangular shape with a front side and a back side; a rotatable mail deposit pivotably attached to the front side of the housing and comprising a mail delivery door, an inner panel affixed on a proximate end at an angle to a bottom of the mail delivery door, and a safety arm affixed at a further angle to a distal end of the inner panel limiting access to an interior of the housing and pointing towards the front side of the housing when the rotatable mail deposit is in a closed position, wherein a length of the safety arm is dependent on the further angle between the inner panel and the safety arm, preventing the safety arm from extending past a midline of the housing, wherein the midline bisects a center of the housing parallel to the front side; a mail slot formed as an opening in the front side of the housing when the rotatable mail deposit is in an open position allowing mail to be deposited over a top surface of each of the inner panel and the safety arm; and a mail retrieval door located below the rotatable mail deposit and pivotably attached to the front side of the housing.
