A person to povide with protection in your mail? (4,6)
I believe the answer is:
body armour
'mail?' is the definition.
(mail is a kind of body armour)
'a person to povide with protection in your' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'a' is found in the answer.
'person' could be 'bod' (bod can informally mean a person or body) and 'bod' is located in the answer.
'your' could be 'yr' and 'yr' is found in the leftover letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for body armour that I've seen is " Police/army clothing".)
