Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Ohio

USPS as an intermediary/agent for debt collection

If a postal money order or certified check made payable to a specific credit company is sent via certified mail, does the US Post Service, in accepting both the item and a service fee for delivering the item, act as an intermediary or agent for the credit company? And, as such, can the postmarked date be considered the date of payment?
