Lindsay Lohan has been receiving an average of 250 letters a day in jail, it has emerged.

"Most inmates don't get as much mail as Ms. Lohan is getting," the New York Post quoted Steve Whitmore, a sheriff's spokesman, as saying.

Lohan's mail, like any other inmate at the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, Calif., is checked for contraband before it is delivered to the 24-year-old starlet, reports the Los Angeles Times.

The "Mean Girls" star can keep 10 letters at a time and can turn in read mail to receive new letters.

In recent days she also received packages from Amazon.com. Inmates are permitted three magazines or books at any one time, Whitmore said.

She will receive her all her mail when she is released from jail, which officials expect could be sometime next week. (ANI)
