    Just in case morality doesn't get ya.....the LAW can. It is illegal to open anyone else's mail even if it's in YOUR mailbox. It is actually a felony if I'm not mistaken. A $40 usb drive is not worth going to jail for IMO. You'd be somebody's biotch in jail sure enough then.....

    There's a difference between an honest mistake and just saying "screw it, it came to me, so it's their loss".

    I too have made the same mistake too. I also went right then and walked next door and told them that I had mistakenly opened it. I appologized and moved on. But to purposely open it and keep opening them and keeping the stuff for yourself? That's totally different.

    Notice how you capitalized YOUR mailbox. Correct me if I'm wrong, Jaime, but even though it is your box isn't it, at the same time, federal property? Later, QD.
