I don't care if they call their boss Grand Wazoo Snail Mail Evangelist; there are software and ice cream companies that use non-standard titles too. "Postal Inspector" is a much more serious problem title, since they seem to have quasi-police powers to do criminal investigations of postal offenses like pornography and pyramid scams and running competing formatted-tree-product information delivery services.
A few years ago, they actually said that they stopped the armed raids on corporate mailrooms to investigate the crime of using Fedex for non-critical First Class deliveries. The Postal Inspectors are still Peace Officers, however. But then so are the Railroad Police. DCF
