If email is the killer app of the Internet era then why do we all still have snail mail mailboxes? Thanks to a new service, that to may soon come to an end.

But would u really want any sensitive material ie. bank statements payslips, processed by a third party.

Would make me uneasy thats for sure, and these are the only things i really ever get via the snail.

"Runs the gambit" ???!? WTF?

How about you try a REAL expression that means something, such as "Runs the gamut". Don't you guys proofread this stuff before you post it?

That's like people that say "Cut the mustard." Which is a RETARDED derivation from "cut muster" which is a badly mangled derivation of "pass muster." Geez!

I have two problems with this:

1) Same as the above poster. This is not good for sensitive info, which is pretty much the only stuff sent by snail mail anymore anyways.

2) The main purpose of this, as I see it, is to cut down on paper usage. I can't see anybody actually caring about paper cuts or having to recycle it. I can see people using it to try and save a few trees, but USPS will print out the electronic message and mail it to the recipient and that other company still receives paper copies of all of your mail, so no paper is saved using either of these tools.
