The "key" which opens the entire PO Box "front" is extremely easy to obtain; and if you don't have one, a crowbar/lockpicks [used just once] will simultaneously open entire ~250 box panels.

I know many apartment building mailboxes have a front key, but shouldn't PO Boxes at the post office be filled from the BACK?

Not every post office has a "back," albeit many due.

Many of the ones with backs still have keyed fronts; apartment complexes are notorious for front-access break-ins.
