Alas my bank would charge me $20 just to process any overseas check.
Thus, unless a check is drawn to a US (or Canadian) bank payable in US funds
I must send it back. Some US banks will also charge a $1 or so processing fee
for Canadian checks.  Another solution is International Postal Money Orders
which you should be able to obtain at any post office.  I've had no problems
with these but I did get strange looks from a bank teller when I presented
one of these from Japan.

If there were any other way for payments to be made to US shareware authors
from non-US users, I'd like to hear of it.
