postbox / post box

Which one is correct for BrE?

(a) postbox / post box

(b) letterbox / letter box
  

Top answer

Most dictionaries like postbox , but the dictionaries are split on letterbox vs letter box . It is not a big problem. I myself would not even bother to consult a reference on such a minor concern, Vincent.
