New UPS Wine Shipping Restrictions...

Just got an e-mail from BlueDanube that UPS has tightened up their alcohol
shipping restrictions severely.
Anybody know what this is about?

Our UPS guy came here bearing liquids just the other day, so it's either very recent or very regional. I'm going to hope it's nuthin'.

It's about retailers. It's not new.

Enforcement is spotty.

Apparently NY is a crackdown state. I haven't had any issues yet, but do have a couple orders with out of state retailers holding for fall shipment, will see then.
