I will agreee that it is probably a major hassle for folk overseas to
send small amounts of cash to shareware authors...

...but if your bank is charging you $$$ to process _deposits_ I would
either 1) find another bank  or  2) file a complaint with a) your state's
Banking Commission and b) the department of consumer affairs.

CitiBank here in NYC has never charged me for processing a _deposit_ of any
kind, they have gotten me for ~7 bucks a pop for certified or bank checks
(a concept I also object to, but I can rationalize a justification for it :-).
