But they shut down in 2014 due to low demand and an upset postmaster general, who thought the service “compromised the security and value of the mail.” Startups have tried this before, like Outbox, which actually would scan and email you both the inside and outside of your mail. Got something you need to send Input the weight and size and find postage. So providing these images directly to users didn’t require any additional hardware - just the software backend to direct the scanned images to the right accounts. Register a National Address for yourself, your business or a government agency. They also occasionally provide these images to law enforcement agencies that request them as part of a criminal investigation. Interestingly, the USPS has already been scanning the outside of your mail for a while - it’s how their automated equipment sorts it for delivery by ZIP Code and street address. Subscribers get an email digest each morning with images of the first 10 pieces of mail, and a link to view the rest if they received more than 10. Right now the service only provides black and white scans of regular letter-sized mail. But in the future they may add other flat-sized pieces like magazines.
While you still won’t be able to see the inside of your mail until it arrives, it should be helpful to know if an important letter is being delivered today or not.
