I guess it depends on the honesty and professionalism of the postal 
employees in the foreign lands. I sent registered QSL to Libya (5a1a) 
and received a card stating that he received the mail torn open with the 
greenstamp gone. So yes the QSL made it, but with out the security I 
would have hoped for with the registered status. Fortunately I got my 
card..
