But the other package, sent a week later, returned the same error on the USPS computer system. A call to the local PO brought the news that they couldn't track the package in the system either. But the receipt looked ok, it had the proper destination.

I know it could have been any number of mistakes, but I wonder if it could have been a computer system problem brought on by ill advised programming on the USPS computer system....
