Etymology
Mailroom is easy to remember: it joins mail, which comes from an old French word for a 'bag' used to carry letters, and room, meaning a space. A mailroom is literally a 'room for mail', which is why it is the place in a company where letters and packages are received, sorted, and sent out.
