Um... off the top of my head, I'm not sure. Stamped US Mail gets postmarked, with a date and location. However, that's just the place where the thing was mailed; you could drive anywhere to send a letter or a package. UPS labels have return addresses -- these days you can track the package, though in L&C-world they probably can't.

If I wanted to send something anonymously, I think I'd use a fake return address, and arrange for it to get mailed from out of town, or better yet, out of state. It could be tracked back to that post office, but by then I'd be long gone, so the trail would end.

"I have a...."
"Oh, shut up."
