At the same time, The Sun today published a picture of what it claimed was the Communication Workers Union deputy general secretary Dave Ward's home letterbox - bearing a ‘no junk mail' sticker.
Direct mail is a big revenue earner for Royal Mail, with the top 100 mail-using brands spending £1.5bn on the channel from July 2008 to June 2009.
Crozier's salary is contained in a pay chart, compiled for ITV's Tonight programme, showing that he received £995,000 in pay and bonuses in the financial year 2008-2009.
His pay package is more than five times that of the Prime Minister and exceeds the salaries of most other public sector heads.
Crozier has kept a low profile throughout the current dispute, apart from an appearance on BBC One's Andrew Marr Show eight days ago when and reach an agreement.
The revelations come as a High Court action by the CWU is expected to come to court today or Tuesday. Lawyers for the union are mounting a bid to have Royal Mail's use of 30,000 temporary workers declared illegal.
The union is insisting the action will go ahead, despite the planned resumption of negotiations with Royal Mail at the TUC today.
Meanwhile Royal Mail said 25% of postal workers had turned up for duty on Saturday, typically a busy day for delivery of direct mail.
Saturday was the final day of last week's three days of strikes, but the CWU plans all-out strikes for 6 and 9 November.
The dispute is about Royal Mail's plans to modernise its operations, which the union claims could lead to 60,000 job losses.
