Default Sending stamps via USPS

I seem to be having a problem entering a mississippi PP's address onto the online-store. Any ideas about where i'm going wrong?

not sure what went wrong but maybe you can just send the actual stamps instead. all of my pp's have been in MS and when they were in the minimum i could send stamps. not sure about the rules at other custody levels though.

It's a bit tricky getting US stamps over in the UK. Haven't managed to find an outlet yet... Anymore ideas?

You have to get creative b/c there isn't enough room to put the entire address. So use the facility's initials and you should have enough room on the address line. Try putting their inmate number in the last name field along with the last name. It takes a little maneuvering, but it can be done. I use the online usps all the time :-)
