A letter bomb sent to Northern Ireland's chief constable has been intercepted at a postal sorting office in County Antrim.
An army bomb team dealt with the device at Mallusk early on Friday.
It had been addressed to Matt Baggott at the police's headquarters in Knock, east Belfast.
Mail deliveries will be affected on Friday. Northern Ireland Secretary Theresa Villiers said it was a "callous and reckless attack".
"Those responsible for this device have almost no support and have demonstrated a blatant disregard for the safety of those who could have been injured," she said.
"The chief constable undertakes a challenging role in delivering community policing in a difficult environment."
A spokeswoman for Royal Mail said: "The Northern Ireland mail centre at Mallusk was evacuated overnight due to a suspect package.
"Unfortunately there will be an effect on deliveries today and we apologise for any inconvenience this may cause."
Police have appealed for the public to be vigilant and report anything that looks suspicious.
