I am truely amazed how difficult this is for US residents. Can't you
just drop a letter to overeseas in a mailbox? In my country a mailbox
will accept 'letters' up to 30 mm, so the majority of my packages can be
posted this way. Even when I have a package that does not fit I can put
on the stamps and drop it off at the postoffice, without standing in
line. There are some exceptions, like postman-payed, conformation of
receipt, etc, but I can do almost all packages I sent (~2000 last year)
without standing in line. I can even order new stamps over internet :)
