Do you think a long-term trader would also have the right to do a change-of-address for the box, re-directing mail that's addressed to the property owner? Or mark items addressed to the property owner "not at this address"?
Does a long-term renter has a right to remove a tree or repaint the property owner's house? After all, they are a resident there.
They could always rent from someone else.

If access to the mailbox is specified in the lease, it may be a gray area. But, the USPS has specific rules for tenant access to the mailbox, which is owned and controlled by the Federal Government, not the landlord. Google it.
