A It is delivered as usual
✕ It is delivered only in the morning Your answer
C Only regular letters are delivered, but no packages

Not quite.

The USPS observes federal holidays, so there is normally no regular mail delivery and retail counters are closed. Delivery resumes on the next regular delivery day.
