Now that I've used the program some, it keeps getting better and better! Got the labels thank you. (No gang, I bought them).
Here's a few mods I'd like to see for Dazzle... (Yes, I'm dazzled)
Allow the postage log report to be modified. Allow us to create reports that we can add additional data fields. Both Dazzle data as well as our own manual input.
Reason: I use u-pic.com for postal and package carrier insurance and I have to maintain a shipping log for them. If your report was flexible that I could add a few additional fields that I could manually input data, I would not have to maintain a separate shipping log. The report should be flexible enough so that I could add package shipments to the report when using UPS, Fedex and other private carriers as well. This way, in one log, I would have all my shipments together.
A week or so ago there was a rep from endicia replying to question here I think it was metioned that the loging has to be done according to postal codes and regulations.
not shure if the use was able to Modify change or add to the log it would be in side there policies.

I actually EMailed the USPS Program Managers about this issue a week ago. They responded by saying that they were willing to relax the original rules on the postage log! (The original rules had dongle-based PC-Postage Systems in mind, where the only log of detailed postage transactions would be on the user's PC. With centralized systems such as ours, the importance of that local log to USPS auditors is virtually nil -- the USPS auditors can get what they need from our server cluster.)
Now realistically, it's going to take us a bit of time to rework this -- mostly because if we make a change we want to make one that will maximize it's utility to the greatest number of users. But we agree that having a log which can be customized -- and perhaps more importantly -- in a format which is easy to extract from (e.g. Access DB), will be a major customer benefit.

I just wanted to say thanks for pointing out this company to me. I was just about to join up with simply postage for 14.95 a month. Though, their neat little scale/printer thing for free was pretty neat, I can save 5 bucks a month and use my very accurate to the half ounce food scale.
I plan on joining up soon. The price is great.
One question:: Can I print onto Priotiy Mail labels I get from the PO??

As to the label... YES, several versions in fact! The best ones are the Jan. 1999. Unfortunately, I used up mine and my post office doesn't have any more, only the later version...
