I can't believe I'm involving myself in an argument between two of the
biggest idiots on this, or probably any other, newsgroup, but here's your
answer:
The code cites are: 18 U.S.C. 1693-1699, and 39 U.S.C. 601-606.
Most of the definitions are done by rule, not statute at: 39 CFR 310-320.
See http://www.usps.com/cpim/ftp/pubs/pub542.pdf if you want plain english
on the question.
