One thing to note. Unless USPS has changed it something mailed first class has to be 3/4 or more thick to have tracking.
I'm very sure of this, as I had a photo mailer mailed with click and ship as a first class package (It wasn't flexible so it was considered to be a package) Rejected and returned to me for insufficient postage.
The manager at the PO and I discussed it, and I went home to repack and print out the part of the DMM that I thought applied. - 1/4 or less thick not flexible =package = tracking ok. (Plus the Ebay click and ship forced the inclusion of tracking, why offer the special deal on a service that can't be used?)
He'd printed out a different section saying that mail pieces under 3/4 thick that were not priority weren't elegible for tracking.
Solved it with a packing peanut and retaping the photo mailer.
