The US Postal service sells a database called TIGER/ZIP+4, which is a
combination of USPS and Census bureau data.  The official page is at

http://www.usps.gov/ncsc/products/tiger.htm

, but if you're content with old data, you can download the 1999

http://www.census.gov/geo/www/tiger/zip1999.html
