Copied + pasted from the USPS website:
"FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
September 12, 2001 - AM Update
WASHINGTON D.C. - Postal employees across the country are continuing to maintain normal collection, processing and delivery operations following yesterday's tragic events in New York City and Washington, D.C.
"The best thing we can do for America right now is to keep the mail moving," said Postmaster General John E. Potter.
Mail continues to flow to its destinations and POST OFFICES throughout the country ARE OPEN to serve customers. The only exceptions are the portions of New York City most severely impacted by yesterday’s events.
Since nationwide air transportation was suspended by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), an expanded ground transportation network is moving mail. Once the FAA allows commercial flights to resume and carry mail, the Postal Service will use all existing means to keep the mail moving to the American people and businesses. "
Key sentence: "Postal employees across the country are continuing to maintain normal collection, processing and delivery operations "
Hopefully this will include customs inspections. Added to the fact that they didn't mention increased security measures.
