Oh i like that! Those icons are excellent
UPS, FedEx and the USPS are from the reddit post, I added in 2 amazon icons, one with black background, one with white (as shown).
Card config if you’d like as well:
type: vertical-stack
cards:
- type: horizontal-stack
cards:
- entities:
- entity: sensor.mail_usps_mail
name: USPS Mail
- entity: sensor.mail_packages_in_transit
name: Packages in Transit
- entity: sensor.mail_packages_delivered
name: Packages Delivered
- entity: sensor.mail_updated
- entity: input_select.notify_select
show_header_toggle: false
type: entities
- type: glance
entities:
- entity: sensor.mail_ups_packages

- entity: sensor.mail_fedex_packages

Wow Thanks I will definitely be stealing some of that:)
Very nice - I as well have copied this setup. The icons are a very nice touch!
Thanks!

hi,
how much effort does it take to integrate other parcel services?
I am living in germany and would want to integrate DHL, GLS, DPD and Hermes. I already created a feature request for this, before I was pointed to this integration.
https://community.home-assistant.io/t/universal-parcel-tracking-integration/197187
What can I do to support?
We’d need to know what the emails look like (and the delivery service would need to support sending out status emails like “out for delivery”).
As fuzzymistborn stated, we’d need to know what the email body contains, along with the email address they’re coming from. Feel free to submit a features request issue on the github repo with the relevant information, redact any personal info like your address and what not.
love the card…, how do i get mail pictures to show up?
i do have this in my configuration.yaml
camera:
- platform: local_file
file_path: /config/images/mail_and_packages/mail_today.gif
name: mail_usps
You’d use a picture-entity card, unless you’re using the card moralmunky created.
any examples?
Sure thing this is my default card setup:
aspect_ratio: 50%
camera_image: camera.mail_usps
camera_view: live
entity: camera.mail_usps
show_name: false
show_state: false
type: picture-entity
how do i know if its pulling images from my gmail account? i dont think it is… i have 4 mail pieces coming today but it says idle

Ok check the directory /config/images/mail_and_packages/mail_today.gif for the image file. If it’s a random jumble of letters and numbers you’ll either need to uncheck the random feature or use this automation:
- alias: 'Update USPS Mail Camera'
trigger:
- platform: state
entity_id: sensor.mail_usps_mail
action:
- service: local_file.update_file_path
data_template:
entity_id: camera.mail_usps
file_path: >
{% if state_attr('sensor.mail_usps_mail','image') == None %}
/config/images/mail_and_packages/mail_none.gif
{% else %}
/config/images/mail_and_packages/{{ state_attr('sensor.mail_usps_mail','image') }}
{% endif %}
No create the directory images/mail_and_packages/ in /mnt/user/appdata/hassio/homeassistant/ which is your /config directory
ok, done now what what do i need it to say in the config for the integration?
