I think the issue is more likely to be the French postal service as I doubt 6hrs isn't going to be long enough for them to process from the arrival hub to the local sorting hub. Most sorting and distribution is done overnight.

They've probably just turned it around at the first place it gets sorted at. It'll probably get returned with a note saying it's not a valid address, insufficient postage, or something like that.

A double negative occurs when two forms of negation are used in the same clause. In some languages (or varieties of a language), negative forms are consistently used throughout the sentence to express a single negation. In other languages, a double negative is used to negate a negation, and therefore, it resolves to a positive. In the former case, triple and quadruple negation can also be seen, which leads to the terms multiple negation or negative concord.
