I had this problem too. Perhaps my solution wasn't the best. The Post Office expects "United Kingdom (Great Britain)", but the default country name in Satchmo is set to "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland". How I solved this was I went to the USPS site and looked at their list of "supported" countries and how they are to be spelled. We checked to see if USPS can accept an abbreviation or an ISO 2 or 3 letter code or number, but couldn't figure it out. I just changed the name of the country and everything worked. I wonder what other country names will cause the same problem?
