The US Post Office doesn't have it rough enough, right? Aren't there limited hubs now?

Why aren't there sniffer dogs in the USPS hubs to find these letters and help pin down where they are coming from?

...But the closing (click here) of 232 processing centers will be phased in over three years instead of the faster pace postal officials announced last fall.
“After input from our customers, we’ve modified our approach,” Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe said at a news conference. “But the sobering reality is that the First Class mail [volume] will not return.”...

I don't think a post office mark is enough. Maybe the collection is too general, but, it is a thought.

Any chance a small residual would be on the machines? Mail trucks?

It is picked up in small amounts at government offices, I would think it would be possible to do the same thing at the hubs.

It can't be that random that it would send detective in circles.

I don't even know if it could be done with dogs. They'd have to be trained with castor beans.
