is more of an oxymoron than anything else.
Yet, curiously, it does function for Dominican local mail.
My Christmas card from a friend in the Virgin Islands got here last week. I am not kidding! It was posted on 16 December in San Juan, PR!!, but it came by Business Mail, and was late because they did not put my account number on it!! LOL
Seriously, for good mail service you will have to open an account witn EPS, CPS, or Business Mail or one of the other services. Some of the Evangelicals have weekly flights here that provide a service, too.
Besides, that's why they invented E-Mail!!!

Note: Allow me to add this. The IMPOSDOM does have an afiliation with International Express Mail and these packages do get through in a timely fashion. Much more expensive than normal postage, but much, much less than FEDEX or DHL...In fact, last September I got a phone call at night and the person identified herself as an employee of the IEM office here in Santiago. She was apologetic that she was calling at that hour of the night, but since the previous administration had not paid their phone bill it was impossible for them to call from the mail office, so she was using her home phone to notify clients that they had received IEM packages or letters. I just sat there grinning....how cool and how professional was that? So some things do work.
