Starting with postbag 11, some issues included a section known as Wise old tips, where the Wise Old Man provided insight to the readers. Other issues included sections from various other personalities such as the Chaos Elemental or Evil Dave.
On 12 August2016, all mentions of Postbag from the Hedge were completely removed from the site. Any previous links to them redirects to the Customer Support section.
After a long absence, with the last one to release on RuneScape being in December 2013, a new Old School RuneScape Postbag from the Hedge debuted on 14 May2021. They are now a regular monthly feature in the Gielinor Gazette. While Postbags during the RuneScape era sometimes had to be retconned due to lore inconsistencies, they are vetted for consistency with lore in Old School and generally considered to be canon in the latter.[1]
The postbag stamps display the letters R.P.D.T., which stand for RuneScape Parcel Delivery Team, of which Postie Pete is a member.

Mod Ash: "The writers reach out to devs who've worked on the related content, in order to keep them consistent with current plans for the lore. E.g. the announcement of Snowflake's pregnancy is consistent with how I see her & My Arm progressing, if they appear in a future quest."
