A postal sorting machine includes an injection carousel ( 1 ) and a system ( 4 ) for injecting mail items ( 3 ) standing on edge into receptacles ( 2 ) of the carousel ( 1 ). Each receptacle ( 2 ) of the carousel ( 1 ) is defined by an end wall ( 7 ) and two side walls ( 5, 6 ). A flexible deflector ( 12 ) is secured to a first side wall ( 5 ) of each receptacle in such a manner that each mail item ( 3 ) injected into the receptacle ( 2 ) is guided towards the end wall ( 7 ) while being pressed substantially against the second side wall ( 6 ).
