Can any English-Russian online translators (or software) correctly translate this simple sentence?!?

I bought PROMT 8 software and it's giving me some pretty bad translations :( it was expensive too



For instance, it can't even translate:



"I work at the post-office"



The correct translation is:



Я работаю на почте



(PROMT gives me: Я работаю над почтой)



Does anyone know of an online translation site, or software, that will accurately translate this simple phrase?



Thanks very much,



Tracy.

It's impossible in principal - - the AI (Artificial Intelligence) software failed to be developed, software programs can not grasp the meaning of the text, can not understand the content - thus it's a bad translation in 90% of cases - being it Google or ProMT



Software such ProMT is for different reason - to help BI-lingual person to save some time, say helps a professional translator by 'building' kind of 'skeleton' of the text, having some words translated.



It is NOT suitable at all for a person who say knows just English and wants to write e-mail to a Russian friend - it will be a shame :(

GoogleTranslate gives the correct translation:

I work at the post-office -%26gt; Я работаю в почтовом отделении
