I think you missed my point. I don't care about junk mail . I only go to the mailbox because I may get a legal notification from someone like the IRS or a court. But, I should be able to cancel my USPS account and require legal documents to be delivered to me by another method. The Government will not allow you to cancel the account, because they want a monopoly on legal notifications.
