This is outlined in Title 18, Section 1725 of the United States Code, which states that any person who knowingly and willfully deposits any mailable matter such as statements of accounts, circulars, sale bills, or other like matter, on which no postage has been paid, into any letter box established, approved, or accepted by the Postal Service for the receipt or delivery of mail matter on any mail route with intent to avoid payment of lawful postage thereon, shall for each such offense be fined under this title.Violating this law can result in a fine for each piece of mail that is improperly deposited.
