Quick tip: avoiding postal junk mail

A comment on This Is Broken today revealed a new way to get off of (postal) junk mail lists: ask the post office to stop delivering mail from that address.

From the USPS's "Domestic Mail Manual," 508 Recipient Services:

1.1.4 Mail Withheld From Delivery
An addressee may request the postmaster, in writing, to withhold from delivery for a period not to exceed 2 years any foreign letter or printed matter with a specified name or address on the outside.
