When this happened to me, I had mailed it from the post office. I returned there to find out why the package was returned and filled out a form to get my original postage back. I had to ask for my money back first, or I would have been out of luck.
Let me just add that if I am going towards the next town, I prefer to do my mailings from there. The service you get is totally determined by the postmaster, and some are just jerks.
