But I can't agree that USPS is at no fault for the spam. If a mail is addressed to me and USPS delivers it, I don't have any problem. Most people can deal with it. What about so many advertisements, booklets, coupons received that are addressed to "current resident at xxx". Why USPS delivers this kind of unsolicited mails to residents?. Yahoo does not deliver emails addressed to everyone at yahoo dot com. Not only that, Yahoo also blocks automatically mails with specific content though they are addressed to specific addresses. It allows users to mark a mail as a spam and block further emails from a given email ID. Why USPS can't block mails that do not have specific address with your name on it.

We only deliver what is mailed to you-we do not create the pieces of mail, nor can we decide not deliver what is mailed. I, too, receive many pieces of mail I don't ask for-as I do telephone calls asking me to re-finance my home-but these calls are not the phone companies' fault. If you have any postal related questions, please contact me.
