I love knowing that I shouldn't even bother going to the mailbox when it's just junk mail like my kid's college bills.

It's good but sometimes I get shit that I like want to look at right then, but I'm at work when the email comes. Like I got a letter from the IRS and I was freaking out a little all day.

Who gets anything other than junk mail anymore?

I guess it would be cool to see if you got a wedding invitation or a birthday card from your aunt or something. So do the postal workers have to take a pic of everything or do they automate it somehow? If there's any human involvement I'm sure that would be a pain. But I guess something like sorting mail is tedious as fuck anyway.

most sorting is automated, all of it is scanned and humans are only needed if it's not clear


i've been doing informed delivery for awhile but it keeps making me wait too long to check the mail and the USPS has held my mail a couple times because i wasn't getting it from the mailbox

im sure criminals are using this to steal shit somehow

it's a good way to see if you are having mail stolen, there is a link to click if there is a piece of mail you haven't received

that's cool

Anyone in Raleigh/Cary eligible for this? I signed up, but didn't see the informed delivery as a service offered as a result of signing up.
