personal mail

Letters addressed individually

Personal mail is correspondence addressed to a specific individual rather than to an organization, office, or general recipient.

It typically contains private content—letters from friends, family communications, medical records, financial statements—as opposed to business correspondence or bulk mailings.

Marking something personal mail signals it should be opened only by the addressee: Please don't open my personal mail.
