Kearney The Postal Service will withdraw a Federal Register notice because its issuance has caused misunderstanding in some quarters. "Sender-Identified Mail: Enhanced Requirement for Discount Rate Mailings," a notice intended to clarify business customer information, will be reissued. ### I hear that now that they have withdrawn the notice, they are going to reissue the exact same proposal without all the talk of "Intelligent Mail." That, of course, does not alleviate the civil liberties problems with sender ID.
