Since you seem to be so expert on FINCEN Form 105 why do you think they put the mailing address in the instructions on how and where to file?
Sorry dude you misread the instructions. You don't mail when you are carrying the cash only if you received the money or are mailing/shipping the money.

From FINCEN Form 105 (PDF Warning)
WHEN AND WHERE TO FILE:
A. Recipients—Each person who receives currency or other monetary instruments in the United States shall file FinCEN Form 105, within 15 days after receipt of the currency or monetary instruments, with the Customs officer in charge at any port of entry or departure or by mail with the Commissioner of Customs, Attention: Currency Transportation
Reports, Washington DC 20229.

B. Shippers or Mailers—lf the currency or other monetary instrument does not accompany the person entering or departing the United States, FinCEN Form 105 may be filed by mail on or before the date of entry, departure, mailing, or shipping with the Commissioner
of Customs, Attention: Currency Transportation Reports, Washington DC 20229.

C. Travelers—Travelers carrying currency or other monetary instruments with them shall file FinCEN Form 105 at the time of entry into the United States or at the time of departure from the United States with the Customs officer in charge at any Customs port of entry or departure.

An additional report of a particular transportation, mailing, or shipping of currency or the monetary instruments is not required if a complete and truthful report has already been filed. However, no person otherwise required to file a report shall be excused from liability for failure to do so if, in fact, a complete and truthful report has not been filed. Forms may be obtained from any Bureau of Customs and Border Protection office.
