Shipping with OpenCart

The past few days I have been fighting with trying to install the Magento junk with no success. The main reason is because I want to use Stamps.com for my new site. So my question is, does OpenCart have something similar. I want to:

bulk print postage for orders
automatically update tracking information and send it to the customer
and automatically print return postage when requested

I found one "developers" extension for Stamps.com with comments that have not been answered for years, so is there anything else?

Hi frankwho,

While Stamps.com does not have a direct integration with OpenCart, we do allow both XML and ODBC imports of data. You can also create a post-back file that will include shipping date, mail class and USPS Tracking number that you can upload back into OpenCart, if that is allowed.

The link below contains more info on ODBC imports using Stamps.com:

Please let us know if you have additional questions.

Thanks!

So you have been actively monitoring OpenCart forums for nearly three years, but have not developed an extension?

Anyways, I feel like I am really missing something here because it seems what I am trying to do would be common practice. But all my other webstores have been digital delivery, so I have never had to worry about it before.

I am not locked into using stamps.com, I just want to easily ship and keep the customer informed. So how do you guys ship?
