</I>><i> I think, most people use the full name, when writing letters to other

We tend to follow our federal postal authority guidelines called "Canada
Post" who used to have reference books volumes at their postal outlets
but now promote their website reference areas and when posting overseas
they would prefer country code designation (
<A HREF="http://www.canadapost.ca/tools/pg/manual/PGintdest-e.asp">http://www.canadapost.ca/tools/pg/manual/PGintdest-e.asp</A> -- you just
click on the country and it will return the country code) which are btw
the ISO country code designations.
