I retired from the Po 1.5 years ago and the 3/4" thick limit applied to first class and regular priority large envelopes, no more than 12"X15" not the Flat Rate priority envelopes provided by the PO. When a large envelope it is thicker than 3/4", it is then concidered a parcel and parcel rates are then applied. This is my first attempt at providing a link. I hope it helps. NOTE: if the prices went up for FLAT Rate priority, it is not reflected on the site yet. PO.
