    That ought to work if the postal worker takes the time to read the
    message and takes the effort to get it returned, so that's what I did.

    The other problem with Bound Printed Matter mailings is that there is
    no time frame by which the PO has to try to deliver them. They go if
    there is space. May be really quick.. and then again may be sailboat
    speed. <g>
