USPS module not working for many countries

[dbrewster]

Hi.

I once posted a question about this over a year ago, but now, with the fancy drop list shipping estimator, I can specify which countries do not work with the USPS module. It's hard to believe that they don't work because the USPS won't ship to those places... Switzerland? ... but if anyone has an answer about why it works this way, I'd love to hear it. This is the latest-and-greatest USPS shipping module in release 1.3.7.

Is it just bugs at the USPS end of things?

We had a customer in Switzerland who had to use "Austria" and a customer in Cyprus who had to use "Greece" to complete checkout.

Countries that do not work with USPS shipping:
Afghanistan
Albania
Algeria
American Samoa
Andorra
Angola
Anguilla
Antarctica (not so surprising that)

THESE WORK:
Antigua and Barbuda
Argentina
Armenia
Aruba
Australia
Austria

THESE DO NOT WORK:
Azerbaijan

THESE WORK:
Bahamas
Bahrain
Bangladesh
Barbados
Belarus
Belgium
Belize

THESE DO NOT WORK:
Benin
Bermuda

THESE WORK:
Bhutan
Bolivia
Bosnia and Herzegowina

THESE DO NOT WORK:
Botswana
Bouvet Island

THESE WORK:
Brazil

THESE DO NOT WORK:
British Indian Ocean Territory

THESE WORK:
Brunei Darussalam

THESE DO NOT WORK:
Bulgaria
Burkina Faso
Burundi

OK, that's enough of that, those are the A's and B's.

Cyprus and Switzerland do not work. I even have the provinces for Switzerland installed.

Your ideas are welcome.
