No one other than the recipient has the right to sign for that legal document. Putting it in a locked box and providing the key does not address this. The boxes can be opened by anyone in a family for example. This does not prove the recipient received the legal documents.

I mostly agree, but unless the package was specifically designated as requiring the actual named person on the package to sign for it, the recipient could have allowed anyone to accept it and sign for it. A specifically designated signature is another type of USPS package designation and pricing option. It doesn't sound like the OP's package was a legal document with that type of delivery option.
