Did someone recently post a list of the Lista de Correos / Poste Restantes in main towns and cities on the VdlP as I can't find it by searching. Perhaps it was on another forum?

I'd like to leave the addresses with my wife in case I need something sent out.

Andrew.

Andrew - I haven't ever seen a list for the VdlP but, if you go onto the Correos website - http://www.correos.es/ - and lok up the towns you might want to send post to, you'll find the postal codes.
Same instructions applies to sending your parcel as elswhere - write your name as it appears in your passport as you might be asked to produce it to collect the post.
If you find the addresses, perhaps you can share them with us.

No information whatsoever on http://www.correos.es about lista de correos... What address do you use exactly? For example, the adress of the post office in Mérida is:

PL. CONSTITUCION, 2
06800 MERIDA (BADAJOZ)

Then you write:

DOE, Jane
Lista de Correos
06800 MERIDA (BADAJOZ)

Is the above correct in this case?

Does anyone know if they keep your parcel longer along the Via de la Plata as well as along the Francés when you write the world 'peregrino' on it? Or should I expect only 15 days?

The information they give here in Santiago is that the 15 day rule applies to all correos.

I'm having some things sent to me in Salamanca. Obviously being a decent size city there are numerous post offices, I'm assuming the main post office is:

Lista de Correos
Gran Via 25-29
37001 Salamanca (SALAMANCA)

I think this is correct.
