The '''Postmaster''',{{Ref|name=Quote1}}{{Ref|name=PHlet|PH|701|Letter from Postmaster}}{{Ref|name=STlet|ST|417-418|Letter from Postmaster}} also known as the '''Postmistress''' in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'',{{Ref|name=Quote2}} is the title of a character that has appeared in three [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'']] games to date, including ''Majora's Mask'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]'', and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]''. The Postmaster is a part of the postal service, and is one rank higher than the [[Postman]], thus making the Postmaster the Postman's boss.

[[Madame Aroma]] serves as the Postmaster in ''Majora's Mask''. She is referred to as both the Postmistress and Postmaster by the Postman.{{Ref|name=Quote1}}{{Ref|name=Quote2}} It is unknown what her exact duties are as the Postmaster; however, she does seem to have some control over the Postman, as when the Postman doesn't want to neglect his schedule and flee,{{Ref|MM|4613|Postman}} Aroma orders him to flee,{{Ref|MM|4673|[[Madame Aroma]]}} relieving the Postman of his duties.{{Ref|pg. 118|When [Madame Aroma] receives the letter, she'll relieve the postman of his duty.|[[Nintendo Power Majora's Mask Strategy Guide]]}} The Postman obliges,{{Ref|MM|4618|Postman}} giving Link the [[Postman's Hat]].{{Ref|pg. 118|If you talk to [the Postman] afterward, he'll graciously give you his Postman's Hat.|[[Nintendo Power Majora's Mask Strategy Guide]]}}

The Postmaster from ''Phantom Hourglass'' is never seen in-game. However, the Postmaster does send [[Link]] a [[letter]];{{Ref|PH|739|Postman}} in fact, it's the very first letter he receives. This letter can be received after Link has purchased the [[Cannon]] from [[Eddo]].{{Ref|pg. 326|'''Trigger Event'''<br/>Purchase the cannon from Eddo.|[[Prima Games Phantom Hourglass Premiere Edition Strategy Guide|Phantom Hourglass Prima Games Strategy Guide]]}} The letter mainly consists of the Postmaster telling Link how diligent and efficient the new Postman is, asking Link to be nice to the Postman.{{Ref|name=PHlet}}{{Ref|pg. 90|He's got an important message for Link that comes straight from the Postmaster himself: the Postman is a good guy, so please be nice to him!|[[Prima Games Phantom Hourglass Premiere Edition Strategy Guide|Phantom Hourglass Prima Games Strategy Guide]]}} The Postmaster is never seen or heard from again.

The Postmaster serves almost the exact same role in ''Spirit Tracks'' as he did in ''Phantom Hourglass''. The Postmaster in ''Spirit Tracks'' sends Link his first letter,{{Ref|name=Prima}} which tells Link that the new Postman is as hardworking and efficient as they come, urging Link to be nice to the Postman.{{Ref|name=STlet}} This letter is received from the Postman in [[Castle Town]].{{Ref|pg. 314|'''Location'''<br/>Castle Town|[[Prima Games Spirit Tracks Premiere Edition Strategy Guide|Spirit Tracks Prima Games Strategy Guide]]}} The Postmaster is never seen or heard from again.
