This however, is not a legitimate USPS address and many companies,
like Netflix and Amazon, that check their
address will not mail to you. Having your mail forwarded can also be difficult.
Until the Post Office fixes this problem the following address can be used to
"fake" the system. 4 Pier Ave is the address of the Mailboat.

A test grade of 70% is required to pass. The test may be taken without attending the classes, however a grade of 80% is then required.
