Photographing my mail and giving to my ex
<p>My ex sent me a check for part of health insurance for children.  After it did not come, over 2 weeks, I reached out and told him I had not received the check.  He went to the post office, the mail clerks let him go through my mail and take a picture of the envelop that came from him.  It was conveniently on top of the pile, so he obviously went through it.  Sent it to me and told me it was at the post office.  Number 1, why was that not put in my box
Number 2 - why is anyone going through my mail
Number 3 - letting him take a photo?  That's not right.  </p>

<p>These all seem to be issues with how the local post office is handling your mail (and no doubt that of others). I would start by asking to see the person in charge of that office, and asking that person the same questions that you asked here.</p>

<p>I am not sure that, under US law, the "envelope information" of your mail is protected in the way that the contents are. </p>
