From what I understand, USPS started using Fed Ex nearly 10 years ago. I believe USPS used to contract with air carriers like Delta Airlines for mail transfer, but consistent delivery times and availability were always an issue...so Fed Ex got the contract and delivery time improved dramatically. =)
