OK to put Pay or Quit notice in the mailbox

Hi BP land,

Last night I had to serve a pay or quit notice to one of my units.  Normally I have taped it to the door, but this time, due to heavy rains in the area, I placed it inside of their mailbox which is attached directly to left of the front door.     I have served them in the past, and they have paid, but I feel like things are going to head to eviction this time.      

Will I run into problems in court based upon the fact that I placed it in their mailbox vs taping to the front door (which wasn't feasible due to the rain?)  (Ohio)

Ed

@Ed Brady always try and post to the front door and take a photo, best defense, and make sure it has a date stamp.

One time there was s big fercocious dog in the yard, so we tossed a piece of candy and ran and  posted to front door. Oh the life of a property manager!!!!!!
