i think the tracking number is more than just a random number, i think they have some significance since i noticed a package shipped from across my city was shorter than the tracking number to ship across the country.

also there is no point to send a tracking number for a shipment that hasnt been picked up yet, even if the numbers were not being recycled you would be getting calls from your customers when the tracking number didnt show a package in the system. simple solution dont give out a tracking number before its active, you dont give out a web site before its made (or at least if your smart you wont)
