OUCH! Guess who among us works for the Post Office as a Postmaster! The reasoning for the Delivery Confirmation rules is the machinery that the items are processed with. Letters, large envelopes and parcels are each run on seperate machines that process mail differently. The rules are all logical if you understand how the mail is processed. Anyways, I suggest you use the packing peanut trick to bump your envelope to the parcel rates if you want to get the Delivery Confirmation.
I too come from a Postal family - my dad's hard work as a Postal Clerk got 6 kids through 12 years of Catholic school. I'm sorry most people find it a headache to visit the PO.
