Since Mactown was established as a navy base, the zip code was originally used exclusively for FPO mail. Unfortunately, this designation hasn’t been officially changed with the USPS, so companies tied in with their database will not accept APO with the McM zip. As people have already said, substituting FPO when necessary will not cause delivery problems – at least not in my experience.
