It's crazier than you think.

Express, Priority, and First Class mail flies FedEx, and has since
2001. I's part of a larger deal which is also why you now see a
FedEx drop box at every post office.
I guess it's coopertition. I think I just made up a word. :)
So if it's illegal for you to put a letter inside a FedEx box,
what's the penalty for moving all the first class mail in a FedEx
airplane. :D
Oh yeah, FedEx can now deliver to APO and P.O. Boxes as well.
