    <p>To be able to become a commercial mail receiving agency, you have
      to fill out a form and become accredited with the USPS as a
      provider of CMRA services.  At which point you have to say what
      address you are using to receive the mail on behalf of others.  At
      which point anybody who does a lookup for the zip code for that
      address will see a "Y" in the CMRA field.  And then the Trademark
      Office will figure out that the residential apartment is being
      used as a mail drop, and you are back looking at an Office Action
      refusing registration because the applicant failed to reveal where
      they sleep at night.<br>
