They definitely are holding mail hostage in Iowa! I vhanged residence and asked my family to put a particular piece of mail in an envelope and send it to me out of state. She did and I still havent received it. Turns out that she had the last 2 numbers of the zipcode wrong. The name, street,street number, city and state were correct. The first 3 numbefs were correct on the zip.
In the days before computers, they could have corrected that and delivered it, but the can’t or won’t do that any more. They returned it to the sender. Didn’t bother to look it up on the computer. Using a change of address doesn’t work because they ignor the name attached to the address. When you continuously receive other people’s mail, and you tell the carrier, he ignores you and continues to deliver that wrong mail to your address. As long as that address is correctly written for A valid address, it goes to that address regardless of who actually lives there. So if someone wants to vote 15 or 20 times or more, they can with all those addresses.
Change of address doesn’t matter. Your mail goes whereever your carrier wants to deposit it. And his postmaster will support him on those decisions. Wrong name on the envelope, deliver it. Wrong zip, send it back. Either way, they don’t care.
ZIP codes have been machine-read for decades. If the code doesn’t align with the destination, the mail gets shunted for a human to check, but staffing resulting from the plandemic has likely led to just defaulting to returning it. It’s annoying, but the majority of the fault lies with whoever misaddressed that mail you were expecting, not the USPS.
The Postal System does all you list correctly where I live. It seems you have a malfunctioning local office. A call to the Postmaster General on the United States will usually correct those problems.
My son makes a joke of what you described by addressing mail to us like this:
Mom & Dad
123 Cute Little St
Smalltown, IN 45678
It always gets here.
