Subject: BS: Need U.S. post office help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here's my problem:

Since the new post office regs came into effect, there is no way to KNOW what postage to put on any given letter or package. In the past, you would weigh the letter, see what postal zone you were sending it to, and you would KNOW what the right stamps should go onto it.

NOW, however, the size of the envelope, the thickness of the edge of the envelope, the thickness in the middle of the envelope, whether or not it can be folded, is it fragile, the length of it, the width of it, is it soft, is it hard, is it leaking anything, and what are your personal official answers when these many questions are put to you??!

BOTH CAROL AND I ARE DUISABLED NOW and taking every piece of mail, other than regular envelopes, is often not possible! The wheels on my wheel chair spin on the ice and snow.

IS THERE AN EASY WAY TO KNOW WHAT AMOUNT OF STAMPS OUGHT TO GO ONTO A GIVEN PIECE OF MAIL !! ???

I'll take my answer off the air!
