I'm sure it is best to be careful for a while.
FOF tells me that in the UK Special Deliveries don't go in with the regular mail. That's because they are prioritised as next day delivery, and they are also more carefully accounted for and tracked through the system. Since they are a small percentage of the total mail, and already separated out, I believe this may be what police are focused on. Darknet sales are very often posted SD so both sides can see it is tracking through the system.
This is an educated guess based on a bit of intel, so I could be wrong. But if you think about it in terms of processes, the logistics of doing the scans, and police priorities (lots of pressure on the darknet at the moment), then this would make sense.
I don't know anything about international post and whether it is affected.
