This rumor is completely false. Much like the rumor that started about the FCC charging long-distance rates for using e-mail and the Internet, this rumor is a hoax. There is no Congressman Schnell and the law firm of Berger, Stepp and Gorman does not exist. I have enclosed a press release from the Postal Service that addresses this issue.
As usage of the Internet increases, I encourage you to be very cautious of information posted on web sites or forwarded through e-mails. The Internet is largely unregulated and, as such, the available information is not checked for validity. I especially encourage you to be cautious when purchasing items over the Internet and to double-check the reputability of the company or service you are using.
Again, the rumored postage fees for using e-mail is false.
