Green Belt You can't change the underlying data in MapPoint. The best way to map customers would be to find the address (with the FindResults method in code or the Find box in the user interface) which would not require a postal code. You could then get a lat/lon for the point which you could store in a database for mapping the point in the future.
See Gilles Kohl's geocoding article for code to get lat/lon from a MapPoint Location object.
