Mailbox Sensor's "Light Sensor"
On the Ring app the Mailbox Sensor has a screen for "Light Sensor" settings.But I'm not sure where or what it is, or what it's for.I'm guessing it's the little cloudy dome on the top. I thought it might light up at night, but it doesn't even with the the setting disabled for "activating **this light** during the day".So I guess the dome is only a light sensor and not also a light? (Even though the setting screen refers to "this light"?)So is the purpose of the light sensor actually for letting the Bridge know whether to activate **other** Ring lighting (to the activation of the Mailbox Sensor's motion sensor)?(FYI I don't plan to get any Ring lighting; I plan to activate my existing smart lighting with an Alexa Routine.)

Hi @b656d62c8f79ce45f560. At this time, the Mailbox Sensor is unable to connect to the Chime or Chime Pro. I would suggest setting up an Alexa routine to notify you when the Mailbox Sensor detects anything. You can find out more about Alexa routines with this Help Center article [here](https://suppo

I can’t get it to tie into my Ring Chime Pros to notify me when mail arrives so it’s functionally useless at this point. It sees it as a light but doesn’t do anything but will trigger other lights or snapshots..... Please advise how to get it to notify my Ring Chime Pros.
