I was just browsing around to see if the Iraq post office will ever get some kind of web presence like any other country and it seems like they don't, but what I did find a press release from the ministry of communication which controls the post office and some things it says (traslated):
1) Work on a post transport office at Baghdad Airport began to ensure post from outside and inside the country reaches its destination.
2) Recieved the latest batch of stamps from Iran according to the collaboration treaty by the two countries
3) Iraq has sent the UPU its share of Iraq stamp releases
4) Collaboration between the ministry of communication and ministry of transport regarding the transport of post across the country using public transport coaches!.
we have a long way to go to the web presence bit then..
Over 50 new FDCs from the period 1970-1980 has been added to the FDC gallery.

THIS INFORMATION IS NOW OUT OF DATE, SUBSCRIBE TO GALLERIES FOR FREE
As of Monday 2nd April 2007, the use of the iraq-stamps.com galleries will be restricted only to a paid one-off subscription.
This website started as a free for all website but didn’t generate much interest to be able to fund its existence from adverts money. As you know the website is huge in terms of material and with so many images, both the hosting storage space and bandwidth is high which costs a lot of money which i can’t really justify any more.
The home page of the website will be open for all, but the stamps and FDC galleries will be locked down.
How do you access the stamps or FDC Gallery?
You will need to purchase a subscription (link above), after you do so, i will send you an email asking you to supply me with a username/password that you want to use to access the galleries and you will be added to the user list.
I am registered in the stamps or FDC gallery, can i access the galleries?
All users who have previously registered would not be able to access the galleries. Please read how to access the galleries (above).
Why the change in policy?
This change will secure the galleries from being closed down due to increasing costs of hosting the huge number of items for free. This will also mean that the subscribed users will benefit from more updates and better user experience as more functionality is added to the galleries regularly.
