Integrated Carriers - Royal Mail and TNT

Can you add new Integrated Carriers?

We need our customers to be able to track their Royal Mail and TNT deliveries.

Version 7.0.1 here

Thanks - it's certainly a start..

Given that we already have shipping rules added, I might give building an integrated carrier a miss - given the nightmare that I had with a new payment gateway..

If I add code to show a base url based on the shipping method, appended with the tracking ID provided by the Order Admin, would this be an acceptable alternative?

Acceptable to your customers? I think so. That is essentially what I get most of the time when I order something from an online store.

There was a thread that showed some nVelocity code to do that, but I'm not sure how to find it. If you search for "tracking" and "email" you might find it.
