I accidentaly deleted United Postal from carrier list.
Store Setting> Custom Field> carriers.

Although I added "USPS" name again but now I can not track the package from Order Detail window. Also my tracking e-mail to yahoo is getting bounced. Here is one e-mail return:

-----------------------------------
An error occured while parsing your message:

any help is appreciated.

Ahsan,

To restore the setting just go to "View" | "Store Settings" | "Custom Fields" and select the "Carriers" tab.  Create a new carrier called US Postal Service or whatever you like and give it the following options:

Type: US Postal Service
Tracking Link: http://trkcnfrm1.smi.usps.com/PTSInternetWeb/InterLabelInquiry.do?origTrackNum=shipment_tracking_id

As long as there is one carrier of type US Postal Service this error will not occur when you update shipping info to yahoo.

Thanks,
David
