I wouldn't be so quick to point fingers at the postal employees like I am seeing being done here.
Yeah it's one thing to imagine some idiot low-life who doesn't know or care that tampering with mail is a federal offense, but quite another for a postal employee who both knows the law and risks his job, and for what--some junk someone sent thru the USPS?

Re: Stealing packages from mailbox

Bodes ill for the so-called SmartPost option that many are using these days, where FedEx (and UPS too I believe) will deliver your package to the USPS which does the final delivery.

All kinds of problems with this, such that I wish e.g. Amazon would let you select the shipping method, even if FedEx delivery to your door costs more...
