in reply to Yet another question on POSTing with LWP

It looks like the other fields are required as part of the form submission, even if they are left blank. Changing the my $req line to the following worked for me: 
my $req = POST 'http://www.usps.com/cgi-bin/zip4/zip4inq2',
          [
            'Firm' => '',
            'Urbanization' => '',
            'Delivery Address' => '3601 Fallstone Court',
            'City' => '',
            'State' => '',
            'Zip Code' => '20744',
            'Submit' => 'Process',
          ];
