Looking for mail catcher to prevent dog from shredding incoming mail...

I have 1 year old springer spaniel who loves to eat paper/magazines/etc... My house is an older house with a mail slot and the mailman drops the mail through the 12 wide opening (13 with hardware). When we aren't home we like to leave the dog out of the crate. The downside is that he likes to read the mail and then dispose of it while we are gone. When we get back home the mail has been through a paper shredder. Option 1) Put a receptacle outside the door (no fun). Option 2) Put the dog in the crate (can't do it) Option 3) Find an attractive letter holder that will protect the mail. I have done my research and still haven't found something that is the right size or aesthetically pleasing:Mail slot collection box mounted at a slot through a door. I love this idea but the person hasn't responded to my emails or phone calls in 2 weeks. This would be perfect but I need to find out if it can be sized to fit a 13 opening. In any case, he won't return the calls. This is a winner if I could find it in my size.letter cage This is an alternative although a little unsightly. Unfortunately they only seem to be available in the UK and none of them will ship to the US. I found something similar on eBay but it was too small for the mail slot.Mail Slot Mailbag - Frequently Asked Questions Functional but butt ugly. My wife won't let me hang that on the inside front door of the house.http://www.snailsakk.com/ An option if nothing else works.... Any ideas on where I can find what I need or get the exact parts to assemble it. I am not much of a handyman but am open to creative ideas... Thanks in advance... Anthony
