More mail stuff, sigh
by avram1＠aol.com 05 May '14

05 May '14

For a long time HPk has had mail problems--wildly varying delivery times, no deliveries, missing mail, missing bills, backlogged delivered, ad infinitum/ad nauseum. Here's something new, for me--wonder if neighbors have had this as well. A friend from another state sent us an invitation, which, while having the correct names/address/zip, was returned to her as undeliverable. We have been at this address for nearly 27 years. Another thing to have a conversation about at the ELib PO, not that I can expect a rationale reply or effective investigation/follow up/remediation of my concerns. I am glad my friend let me know--who knows how many times this has otherwise happened, etc. Anyone else experienced this one? Our mail problems really seem to have reached the tipping point. Avram
