Best Answer

If it is Mail, then yes you can. If it is just a note someone hands to you or something, then no.

Added: Private individuals can NOT "press charges,." the most they can do is file a complaint with law enforcement or (in some states), appear before a magistrate to swear out a complaint.

In the case of a violation of US Postal Regulations they would have to report the alleged offense to the US Postal Service for any action. Local law enforcement authorities can not/will not become involved in the enforcement of Federal Laws.
