I have been divorced for almost 2 years and moved 1200 miles away. My former spouse continues to send me "packages" of mail, i.e. newsletters from local restaurants where we lived, the local newspaper and generally "junk" mails. He also sends "boxes". One evening I came home from work to find 11 boxes on my front door with "items" that he said reminded him of me - so he sent back flour, sugar, dish towels, salt and pepper, a couple of lamps, two artifical trees, a step ladder, etc. Just again last night I came home to two more boxes - this time I returned them to the UPS store unopened and sent them back. We do not speak by phone, if I send him a letter it is returned unopened. I have sent him emails and asked him repeatedly to stop sending mail and boxes!!! Do I have an opportunity here to charge him with harrassment?

Yes you do. Harassment is defined as words, conduct, or action (usually repeated or persistent) that, being directed at a specific person, annoys, alarms, or causes substantial emotional distress in that person and serves no legitimate purpose. The annoyance factor would apply here.
