I dunno about Canadian, but for US address correction right from USPS,
all you need is the ability to send and receive/parse XML.  I've done it
in other languages, but should be quite doable in something cross

are limited to 5 addresses at a time.

The point is that to get the job done under Linux you have to *write software*. People who want to do address correction don't want to have to write software. In any language. Ever. It's not their bag at all. They are experts in other things. Would you drive a car you had to service yourself? Crack your own oil to make the petrol ("gas")?

To Harold Fuchs, et al: I am surprised at your attitude in regards to Linux, There are too many programs available, by developers, to make any sense of what your statements are saying! What a shame as I had thought you were more intelligent than that! I am NOT a programmer nor a developer but, thought you would have understood what I was saying more than anyone else! I am sorely disappointed and confused at your attitude in regards to this situation, when it is obvious you have not done the research and found programs on Linux that, if not completely satisfactory, at least the beginnings of what are what is needed. I am really surprised at what you are now saying in regards to same!
