I've never written to USPS or Dial-A-Zip, but the APIs enabling a RPG
program to communicate over the internet using sockets (which I certainly
have done) have been available since V3R1 so you're being at V4R4 shouldn't
be a problem (other than perhaps finding documenation that only discusses
what's available to you at that release and not "teasing" you with V5, V6,
etc capabilities).
