Idea: maybe it could send an email.

Plus - it's just occurred to me - how will it know which door to use? My Mum, rest her soul, preferred the back door owing to the design of our estate, people used it far more frequently, and our posties were well aware of this (mostly). How would a drone know that without AI and a detailed image via Google Earth (possible privacy concerns there. GDPR, anyone?)?

IIRC you have a QR type code in the area you want it put
