Char,
Your note just confirms what I have always thought, there are bad post offices and good ones... The bad ones are the ones with folks with no sense of honor or personal integrity or just plain lazy and no, you can't fix it, they just might go postal on ya!
HOWEVER, if it gets really bad, there is one remedy if you can bribe or cajole someone into it. I was working the Atlanta Olympics and not getting all the official stuff they were sending me. All of it, big envelopes, little boxes and regular envelopes all disappeared. I finally found a good samaritan who put all my stuff in plain white envelopes and white wrappers, disquised return address, and VOILA! like magic I got everything...
I'm waiting for Suttons' to get their online catalog up since I think I must have fallen off the catalog list.
Yep, online can be wonderful - when it works!

Hi all, One year I just did not get any of my catalogs or magazines in the usual fashion so one Saturday I drove around the neighborhood until I saw the postman's truck. I went up the block and parked, then walked back to his truck and there he was reading one of my magazine's with my name on it. I had a few words with him and then his boss. Did not do a bit of good as then I did not get any mail for 9 years, on Sat or before a holiday or the day after. Sometimes you just can't win. I am so thankful for the email! Char
