About this ebook

Congress adopted the mailbox restriction in 1934 to protect postal revenue by preventing delivery of unstamped matter to mailboxes, which reportedly was having a considerable impact on postal revenues. Today, some major competitors of the Postal Service believe the law to be unfair and unnecessary, that it adversely affects their delivery operations, and should be repealed. This report provides information on the purpose and history of the restriction; current U.S. public attitudes; views of the Postal Service, major mailers, and others; and the experience of mail theft and the need for mailbox restriction.
