The US Post Office is instituting new policies starting tomorrow.    They may cause delays with deliveries over long distances.  Will this cause delays in the delivery of both magazines?

According to the update we got today, USPS expects 61 percent of first-class mail and 93 percent of periodicals to keep their current service standards. We mail Periodicals class, so that's good news. Another bit of good news is that the mail that IS going to be affected is traveling longer distances, and since we dropship our magazines to USPS hubs (literally put the issues in trucks and drive them to major USPS sorting facilities, where they enter the mailstream), very few if any of our issues travel these longer distances.

So short answer: It shouldn't. Then again, "shouldn't" covers a whole host of things that are actually happening...
