If an address is entered with the following format:

Addressee Name
123 Main St.
Anytown, CA
12345-6789

And an envelope is produced using the mail/labels tool function, the generated
postnet barcode (excluding the check digit) will be

12345678999

If, however, the address is properly formatted as

Addressee Name
123 Main St.
Anytown, CA 12345-6789

THEN the correct barcode

12345678923

will be created.
the last two digits represent the last two digits of the house address).

The ONLY place I could find on the MS Website to report bugs (other than MSDN)
gave a general phone number; no on-line form, no email address. If there IS a
more direct method, please let me know!
