Incredible, but after over 4 months I have received a reply from the Lithuanian Postal Service and that’s why I decided to forward this reply to the UPU and here is their statement about the address formatting conflict of letters to Russia and Lithuania!:

“Hello Mr. Droege,

The general recommendation is to use the addressing rules of the destination country. In most of cases, in the country of origin the international mail is only sorted by country name and no postcode verification is performed. The actual sorting takes place in the destination country.

A one exception is addressing rules for Russian addresses. It is recommended to put the country name as the last line in order to facilitate mail item routing in country of origin and transit.

Best regards,

Somebody repaired the ICQ Unified Messaging Center pack for putting into own homepages, since it was broken! 🙂

Well, a lot of sections and toos on the ICQ homepage are from 2001 and older and would need a major overhaul.

Anyway, read all, plus the links, here! 🙂

Maybe some of you know, that sometimes, letters get lost. So, it’s possible to fill an inquiry form for the lost sending. (Those forms are multilingual – in your national language and French).

I have written to the Postal Service an email and said sarcastically they shall please send me “a load of inquiry forms for sendings to abroad”. And they really took me literate! The postman handed over to me an envelope with 50 (!) forms the other day! That keeps for complaining for lost letters for a lifetime! 😀

Above is the proof photo! 😀

A new ICQ? That is what I asked myself when I have seen on TV promoting a new ICQ. But it’s nothing more than the normal ICQ 5 English client but with a customized skin and a few customized xtraz for Pro7.

In total:

– ProSieben Cinema Planner
– ProSieben Playground (games like “Yetisports” or “Blockbuster Bingo”)
– ProSieben Infofeed

So no biggie, but enough to call a 1 year old ICQ client “new!”, hehehe!

Here is something to add to my recent customer support email replies quality table:

I have figured out, that the Lithuanian Postal Servicegot an email contact form since my last email to them! So I have resent my email now using this contact form! Wish me luck! 🙂

Furhermore I did a Google Search and found the email addresses of 33 Russian Postal Service workers, and hope this will finally trigger a reply.

I did the same with AMD since I am waiting since December, 1st, 2005 for a reply! 🙁

I also received no reply from Armenian Postal Service so I also did a Google search. 2 invalid addresses, 2 valid addresses! Let’s hope that I will receive a reply finally! 🙂

Customer support is so bad nowadays! 🙁

Surprise, surprise! Opera 9.0 Final will have a BT client!

I have found by accident a post by an Opera Team member called “olli” who wrote it in the beta forum:

“Our current plan is still to include BT.”

This is great, since yet only Opera 8.02 Build #766 and Opera 8.10 Preview 2 Build: 7685 (both beta builds) had a BT client!

The year 2005 was a nice year, I have reached the goals I have made up for myself and the best thing was for sure my trip to Sweden visiting a friend! 🙂

And we had a very cold summer but a warm autumn, which surprised me a lot, since this was a new experience for me! 🙂

And I have joined the world of blogging, hehe! 🙂
