Can landlord tell post office tenants have moved?

If the tenant has abandoned the property, moved and legally ended their tenancy, if the landlord owns the mailbox, he may return the mail to the post office UNOPENED. The landlord may NOT open or keep the mail. That is the recipient's property by Federal Postal Regulations. Once the tenant has legally vacated the property, the landlord has a right to the mailbox container, its security and use. The landlord, as the owner of the property does have the right to tell the post office the recipient may no longer receive the mail, HOWEVER, he must not destroy the mail or complete a forwarding order, etc.
