How we check

Every 5 minutes, from Sydney, Virginia and Frankfurt, we call the USPS Web Tools endpoint a shipping app uses, and load PostalPro. Not a ping. Not their status page.

Normally 2.1 s from Sydney, 630 ms from Frankfurt, 542 ms from Virginia — the slowest step we run, measured since 19 Oct 2026 (10 days).

Their tracking is slow or unreachable; the service itself is working.
