MAD airport Correos office open?

The El Camino con Correos site shows the MAD T1 post office closed. Google shows it open M-F 8:30-2:30 and the airport website mentions that they have a post office but then only gives locations for drop boxes.

I’ll likely be flying from MAD to Oviedo (for the Primitivo) and am trying to figure out if I need to pay in advance for a checked back and then ship my extra luggage from the Oviedo Correos office. Or if I can just ship the bag right in MAD, then just fly to Oviedo with my pilgrim backpack.

I know I could wing it, but the airlines always ding you if you don’t pay ahead of time for a checked bag.

Has anyone been in MAD (T1) lately and seen the Correos office? Is it open?

Thanks in advance!
