I am waiting for a package that is coming from just 800 miles away. I have a tracking number that tells me nothing more than that the package has entered into the system.
My package reportedly left Denver on the 23rd with a forecast delivery date of today and that is the last status report available. No change in three days.
The postman just left - no package.

Aaah, this may explain:
What does Track & Confirm show? Enter your label number to see the status of your item. If you shipped with Express Mail®, you’ll get point-by-point tracking details. If you used another service—Delivery Confirmation™, Certified Mail™, Registered Mail™ —you’ll see when it went out for delivery.
The tracking number, once decoded, tells me that the status will not change until it is in the hands of my carrier - when I get the package.
I have been spoiled by the UPS tracking service.
