No they do not open your mail.
Field and Stream and Better Homes and Garden are shipped open with only a shipping address on the front cover. You can look at the front of the magazine or flip through and read all of the articles.
There are other magazines that have to be shipped in a wrapped package so that you can not see the front or back cover or flip through the magazine. So a normal person would make the conclusion that something is private or not suitable for the general public to see.
The average person who delivers the mail sees thousand and thousands of pieces of mail a day. Just by looking at the outer package and the return address they can give you a pretty good educated guess of what is inside.
So when a house is foreclosed on, returned checks, prescription drugs, court appearances, all of this stuff is delivered by your mail carrier. They know much more about you and your neighbors than you probably think.
