Thanks to Sister Jensen, shared on MissionaryMommas, we have some tips for sending mail to the Mexico MTC (CCM)
"Momma's that have missionaries at the Mexico MTC (CCM)...here are a few tips I have learned, I hope they help. If you have any tips for me, I would love to hear them too. Your missionary only gets 30-60 minutes of computer time per week to read and respond to every email and while I am grateful we get to communicate with them I have found a few better ways.
You can mail your letters to them via different options. This gives them a chance to receive and read your letters at their convenience. They also have them in their hand anytime they are needing a "pick me up".
1. missionarypackagemx.com has a LETTER delivery system. Their letters are $1 each. Log onto their link and follow the instructions. PHOTOS may be sent, purchase a photo packet and follow the instructions per the link. Predetermined PACKAGES may be purchased also. All items are delivered the next business day. They are based in Mexico City, therefore, you pay online and they package and ship from Mexico city for you. You don't have to worry about customs issues.

I have had great success with these companies. The first company sends back an email when your item is delivered, the second company has free letters and I enjoy them very much. It is just a preference as to which company you would like to use.
Good luck and I hope this helps."
4. Pouch Mail
The Church provides pouch mail service to countries where other mail service may not be reliable. Each country regulates this service differently, and the church must comply with these regulations in order to avoid fines and cessation of this service. Missionaries are allowed to use e-mail to correspond with family, where Internet service is accessible.
- To Prevent possible discontinuation of pouch mail service, only the following items may be sent through the pouch:
- Postcards.
- Letters that are single sheet, folded into three-panels, and taped at the top only (see example at the bottom).
