I brought this into the house with some mail from the mailbox next to the front door today. It looks to be a wolf spider. Any further information/id would be appreciated.

Just a thought...
It looks like I can see good sized spinnerets at the and of the abdomen, I would wonder if this is a funnel weaver and not a wolf spider. I know I get a lot of them haning out around my front door and windowsill. I'm new at this so don't hold me to it, I'm frequentlly wrong. I still get wolf and funnel spiders mixed up pretty often...

Spider
Thanks for the hint. It does look very much like the other images of Agelenopsis.
