When is a Postal Letterbox not Postal Letterbox?

When it’s a pipe bomb. I can’t help but notice the similarities in packaging of the recent despicable occurances of fear mongering terriorists using the USPS for their nefarious actions. I think there will be a crackdown at our local POs 1) to confirm return addresses, and 2) making sure postage is correct and properly cancelled. I can’t be the only one who noticed there was only $3 worth of postage on a minimum $3.50 package and that the stamps weren’t cancelled.

Maybe insufficient postage is why they were found. They must have come postage due.

Maybe micropostals will be better for a while.

I noticed. I have a postal to mail out right now and I feel weird about mailing it because of the bombs. :(

Unless you're mailing it to a politician don't worry about it.
