(from  Australian Stamp Bulletin, January-March 1990)

      In February 1990, Australia Post's Electronic Postal Services
will be introducing a greetings option for customers sending
Lettergram or Faxpost social messages.  The concept is a card/envelope
in different designs to suit specific occasions such as weddings,
birthdays, engagements and more.

     The card/envelope will be handled as pre-paid postal item and
will only be available by sending a "Greetings" Lettergram of Faxpost
message.

     Customers wishing to view the range of designs, or who require
any further information concerning this new service, should contact
their local post office, or phone 1291, after February.

[Note from NDA: Years ago, telegraph companies in North America had
special "greetings" telegrams. This appears to be a resurrection of
the same idea.]
