 * Be aware you need to contact USPS to get an API. You have to go to the USPS page
   and scroll down and you’ll see a small link that says legacy API, register, then
   send an email to USPS to request your application status for approval which takes
   a few days. They’ll prompt you for additional information and then after a couple
   days, you may get approved as long as you provided all of the necessary information.

 * Hi [@realnicewebsites](https://wordpress.org/support/users/realnicewebsites/),
   thanks for the review!
 * We have an update ready that integrates with the new USPS API. Due to an issue
   with the rate calculation for international shipping on the USPS side and since
   this is a major change, we are waiting for a fix to release a new version of 
   the plugin.
 * We will announce the update in the changelog and invite you to switch to the 
   new API. (This will be optional, as the legacy API has no sunset date at this
   point.)
 * Best regards,
   Tomek
