The main reason for the recent downtime of the SA Post Office website was the suspension of its domain due to non-payment.
However, this is only the tip of the iceberg that is the organisation’s problems.
The website was down for several days, and emails sent to @postoffice.co.za addresses bounced.
This downtime was disruptive for users and further hurt the organisation’s poor reputation.
The reason for the downtime is of concern, as the domain name renewal fee was R125.40 and the payment was outstanding for several weeks.
Calvin Browne, cofounder of DNS Africa and head of international registrar relations at Domain Name Services, explained the situation in detail.

LOL the post office tracking tool is down for weeks at a time.
Pretty much echoes their commitment to getting packages delivered.
The fact that such a dysfunctional institution can be thought to do anything when they can't even deliver (no pun) on their normal business activities blows my mind.
