Clarification of Question by dwight7901-ga on 08 Mar 2005 07:48 PST

My interest is in analying the effectiveness of an out of town lockbox
arrangemnet.  We have customers seding payments there, saying there
are significant delays in the system.  I am hoping there are
statisctics showing how fast the mail moves between various points, so
if we need to select another location, we can choose one in a more
effective zip code.

Hope you get the answer soon so that I can compare with standards
applying to us here in Australia, being next day if posted by 6pm and
to be delivered in same capital city. Day two to interstate capital
city, Day Three to any other interstate area, i.e  interstate country
and isolated areas of Australia. Comparison is probably fair as
Australia and USA are almost identical in size,
geographically/area-wise that is.

You may find an answer here I hope - http://www.usps.com/webtools/delivery.htm

I saw this site before I posted my question.  Maybe I overlooked my
answer here, but this looked like the package traking area for
reigstered services like prioirty mail, ceritifed mail, etc. where an
item number is assigned to the piece (as UPS does).  I could not find
any place where it offered real time, or even historical statistics on
first class delivery times between zip codes.  IF I am missing
somehting, kindly advise.
