How to Send Mail to an Inmate

The Poinsett County Detention Center has contracted with Smart Communications to provide MailGuard electronic mail services.

The changes are being made to streamline the operations of the Sheriff's Office, improve communications, and ensure the safety and well-being of inmates and staff.

MailGuard is a quick and efficient way for inmates to receive letters and photos electronically.

Effective July 1, 2024 inmate postal mail must be sent to the following address:

Smart Communications / Poinsett County Detention Center
Adam Smith #123456 (Example Inmate)
PO Box 9201
Seminole, FL 33775-9201

The inmates' name and booking /ID number must be clearly printed on the outside of the envelope or postcard to ensure the mail is posted to the current account.

All regular inmate postal mail (postcards, letters, greeting cards, etc.) will be scanned into the system and available to the inmates to view via the kiosks.

Inappropriate content will be rejected.

Friends and Family members are encouraged to subscribe to MailGuard Tracker - https://www.mailguardtracker.com/. Sign up for a free account and view delivery status, receive notifications if your mail is rejected, and download copies of the mail that has been received and processed.
