Global Express Guaranteed (GXG)
Global Express GuaranteedŪ (GXGTM) is an expedited delivery service for both documents and non-documents (i.e.,
merchandise items) that is the product of a business
alliance between the U.S. Postal ServiceŪ and FedEx Corporation. It provides senders with reliable, high-speed,
time-definite service from designated U.S. ZIP CodeTM
areas to principal locations in more than 190 countries
worldwide. Service is guaranteed to meet destination-
specific delivery standards or the requisite postage will be
refunded.
For almost all network destinations, GXG shipments are insured against loss or damage, up to a value of $100.00, at
no additional charge. Optional document reconstruction insurance, up to a maximum of $2,499.00, is available to almost all network countries. Optional insurance coverage for
non-documents (merchandise) is available to almost all
destination countries. In some instances, the prescribed indemnity limit is less than the $2,499.00 maximum. The fee
for optional GXG insurance coverage is $0.70 for each
$100.00 or fraction thereof. The maximum weight limit for
GXG shipments is 70 pounds, but some destinations have
a lower maximum weight limit. Consult your local Post
Office facility for additional details.
Tables 1a and 1b contain the postage rates that are applicable to GXG document and non-document shipments.

CORRECTION - EFFECTIVE DATE
Discontinuance of Global Direct - Canada Service
In Postal Bulletin 22128 (5-13-04, page 29), the article
"IMM Revision: Discontinuance of Global Direct - Canada
Service" noted that the date that outbound Global Direct -
Canada service will be discontinued is June 30, 2004. However, the actual discontinuance date is the following day -
July 1, 2004 - whereas June 30 is the last day that outbound Global Direct - Canada service will be accepted.
As noted in that article, ancillary services (business reply
service and return of undeliverable mail) for Canada Admail
and Canada Publications Mail will continue to be available
until September 30, 2004.
The revisions to the International Mail Manual (IMM) as
noted in the article are correct as stated because the revisions included no stated dates.

STAMP ANNOUNCEMENT 04-23
James Baldwin Stamp
The Postal ServiceTM will issue a 37-cent, James Baldwin commemorative stamp (Item 456600) in a pressure-
sensitive adhesive (PSA) pane of 20 on July 23, 2004, in
New York, New York. The stamp, designed by Phil Jordan
of Falls Church, Virginia, goes on sale nationwide July 24,
2004.
With this 20th stamp in the Literary Arts series, the Postal Service honors James Baldwin, one of the foremost
American writers of the 20th century. Artist Thomas Blackshear II based his portrait on a black-and-white photograph
of Baldwin taken around 1960, probably in New York. The
stamp background is evocative of Baldwin's semi-auto-
biographical novel Go Tell It on the Mountain, set in Harlem.
How to Order First Day of Issue Postmark
Customers have 30 days to obtain the first day of issue
postmark by mail. They may purchase new stamps at their
local Post OfficeTM, by telephone at 800-STAMP-24, and at
the Postal Store Web site at www.usps.com/shop. They
should affix the stamps to envelopes of their choice, address the envelopes (to themselves or others), and place
them in a larger envelope addressed to:

NOTICE
Meter Technology Migrating to Digital and IBI Meters
Digital printing meters and those that print information
based indicia (IBI) (Phases V and VI are the current preferred meter technology. The meter migration plan, summarized below, is a phased approach to migrate users from
early meter technology susceptible to tampering and misuse to the enhanced security of digital printing.

Phase VI

IBI Digital Print Meter -
Current preferred
technology
|
Phase I accomplished the retirement of all mechanical
meters. Phase II, which is nearly complete, requires the retirement of all manually reset meters (meters that must be
reset manually by a Postal ServiceTM employee).
Phases III and IV retire meters that use letterpress
technology to print indicia. These meters use rotary and
stamping print mechanisms, not digital printing. Phase IV
meters are enhanced by a design feature that disables a
meter not reset within a specified period or failing to meet
some prescribed criteria.
More information on the final plan for secure postage
meter technology, which gives notice of the final plan for the
timetable for the retirement of letterpress meters, can be
found in the following Federal Register articles:
• Volume 66, Number 221, November 15, 2001, pages
57492-57494.
• Volume 67, Number 30, February 13, 2002, pages
6766-6767.
• Volume 69, Number 60, March 29, 2004, page
16292.
There are no retirement dates scheduled for digital meters identified as Phases V and VI, as digital print technology and IBI indicia are the current preferred technology
available. IBI meters are distinguished by the IBI barcode in
the indicia.
For a list of Phase III and IV affected meter models, see
our Web site at http://www.usps.com/postagesolutions/flash.htm; under the section "NOTICE: Plan for Secure
Postage Meter Technology", click on List of affected meters
in pdf format or List of affected meters in Text format.

NOTICE
Policy for Disposal of Meter Keys and Seals
Post OfficeTM employees with postage meter keys that
are no longer needed for resetting a meter should break the
keys in half and dispose of them locally. Return unopened
packs of plastic seals to the Material Distribution Center
(MDC) in Topeka, Kansas. The MDC will restock returned
plastic seals and make them available for offices that still
require them. Cut off the wires of the plastic seals remaining from opened packs and dispose of them locally.
Post Office employees returning unopened packs of
plastic seals to the MDC must follow the established standard operating procedures for returning items to stock and
use a return authorization code for the meter seal (PSIN:
0817PM, PSN: 5340-03-000-7006).
Post Offices were instructed several years ago to dispose of any lead seals. If a Post Office still has lead seals
for any reason, the Post Office must return them to the
MDC for disposal in accordance with established environmental safety laws.
