If the company involved is in a large city (e.g., New York), the District
Attorney's office usually also has some people whose job is to insure that
the mail order laws are complied with.  In my experience writing to them
works much better than writing to the postal inspector (I must admit that
I have never been too fond of the postal inspectors, ever since I read
_The_Defense_Never_Rests,_ and then later observed them in action involving
a postal crime at the university where I went to grad. school).  The
DA's office usually gets things done fast (in New York they even have
fill-in-the-blank form letters they use, so it's not as if you are asking
some special favor of them).
