OK... here is the response I received from PayPal which pretty much temporarily resolves this issue: Thank you for contacting PayPal Customer Support. My name is Keith and I am happy to assist you. We receive our rates and shipping options directly from USPS. As soon as USPS provides us with more shipping options, we will be able to provide these options to our customers. In the mean time, you may be able to access more options by visiting USPS.com directly - you can now use your PayPal account to pay for shipping at USPS.com. Sincerely, Keith PayPal Customer Solutions Support Specialist PayPal, an eBay Company Original Message Follows: ------------------------ customer message: >Topic: 'Business Solutions' >Sub Topic: 'Other Business Resources' >message: 'With the new USPS shipping rates effective January 22, 2012 the PayPal drop down menu for selecting the Priority Mail Flat Rate Package size does not include the NEW option for Padded Envelope and the new option for Legal size envelope. > >Kindly let me know if you are going to fix this problem with the existing drop down menu.'
