1/23    Say I forward USPS address from A->B. Will USPS notify both address
        A and B regarding the change? I'm asking because my former roomate
        lost in Small Claims and I want to hide address B from him so that
        he can't scratch my car or put holes in my tyres. I'm wondering if
        mail forwarding is a good way of hiding my address while still
        keeping the possibility of him sending me payments. Thanks.
        \_ when you fill out the forms they send a notice to both addresses
           but neither has the other address in them. however apparently
           someone (the sender) can request address change info...

        \_ Get a PO Box. USPS forwarding is an unreliable mess. only
           use when absoluteley necessary. I just moved out of state.
           had many delays and I probably lost mail.
           \_ If you're in Berkeley, I recomend Postal Annex, between Channing
              and Dwight by the parking garage south of campus.  I had a box
              there for a year and was really happy with it. Unlike a USPS
              post box, they'll let you call your box an apartment on your
              addresses, so you can claim it as your residence and avoid
              all mail at home.

3/1     I created a honeypot PO Box for reasons that I don't want
        my competitors to know about. Can someone recommend the fastest
        and easiest way to sign up for junk mail via USPS? Thanks.
        \_ Go to the web sites for the various direct mail marketing companies
           and opt in.  Here are a couple to get you started:

1/17    Is it possible to ship USPS Parcel Post online? The online
        interface only allows Priority and Express.
