Mail fraud is the use of the mail system to obtain money, goods and services through deceit and trickery. Using your mother's home address for the receipt of mail is not mail fraud.

No.
Financial mail is a great way to keep track of money. It's very important in economics and helps out a ton. Without financial mail, many businesses could collapse.
Mail tampering is a crime and is punishable by incarceration, fines, or a term of probation. Mail fraud however is federal crime.
Direct mail is not completely immune from fraud but it goes a long way to help prevent it. One of the draw backs could be that some of your clients could feel that it is impersonal and out of reach from you.
