Does anyone know if it is legal to ship beer/wine in the mail?

The laws vary by state...NH just recently started to allow wine shipments direct to consumers from Vitners in different states...but be sure to read the fine print...Vitners have a federal license to MFG and SHIP you may not be granted the same privlage...also Vitners can clearly label their shipments and thereby hope that they recieve the proper care..IE...not left sitting on some loading dock in the hot sun...or roasting in some truck on its way across country...so its not just the shipping side you need to worry about BUT ALSO the recieving side...It was perfectly legal for Mondavi to ship a case of wine...but it was illegal for me to recieve it and so illegal for them to ship TO ME...untill they changed to law...and even then it's still subject to ATF regulations...very tricky! Either way US mail is still (I think) a deff NO-NO! Has to be private carrier...UPS, FED-EX, DHL, ect...
