The Post Office is a recurring location in The Legend of Zelda series.

Majora's Mask

The Post Office in Majora's Mask is the home of the Postman in West Clock Town. The Postman goes out for a run to deliver letters 9 AM, and comes back to the Post Office 12 PM to rest. At 1 PM, he runs out to deliver letters again. He comes back inside at 3 PM to do his 'mental training'. It's at this time, on either the 1st or 2nd day, that Link can try playing the timer game. The first time is free, any other attempts cost 2 Rupees. Link must guess when the time hits exactly ten seconds. If Link guesses the time correctly, the Postman will give him a Piece of Heart.

Oracle of Ages

The Post Office[1] is a location marked in the center of Lynna Village within Oracle of Ages in the Past. It is a simple small wooden building, with a bunch of shelves in the top-right. There's also a desk and chair in the top-left, where the Postman can be found. There are also a bed and nightstand in the bottom-right, suggesting that the Postman sleeps in the Post Office where he works. In the Present, the location where the Post Office was has been replaced by Mayor Plen's House.

This location plays a part in the trading sequence. If Link talks to the Postman within the Post Office, he will reveal to him that even though he wants to deliver the mail on time, he can't if he doesn't know the time.[2] If Link brings him the Poe Clock, the Postman will notice it tells time, and first asks him if he is offering him it, but then just takes it.[3] As thanks, the Postman gives Link the Stationery, and then hustles off to work.[3] Link can later use the Stationery to acquire the Stink Bag.

For the remainder of the game, the Post Office is empty.

The Minish Cap

In The Minish Cap, the Post Office is located in Hyrule Town and occupied by Stamp and Marcy. It is most notably used to fund the writing of the Swordsman Newsletter, written by Swiftblade.
