5 - Falling Out - pre-GPU mail between Italy and Austria was already very complicated even when a mutual postal agreement existed. Imagine without one after a conflict?

3 - Waves of Technology - if not for advances in steamship travel, would transatlantic mail service develop and grow the way it did?

6 - French Connection - you mean my mail to England went through the French?

For all who might revisit this post and wonder - Much Ado About Adae (#7) won the vote. Votes came in via comments (as seen here), direct email and social media. Thank you all for taking the time to reply.

French Connection and Falling Out came in tied for a very close second.
