Mailbomb
A mailbomb (or mail bomb), also called parcel bomb or letter bomb, is an explosive device sent via the postal service, and designed to explode when opened, injuring or killing the recipient, usually someone the sender has a personal grudge against, or more indiscriminately as part of a terrorist campaign. Some countries have agencies the job of which is in part the interdiction of mailbombs and the investigation of mailbombings.
