    Informed Delivery by the USPS.

    This is a new one to me.
    Anyone have experience using it?

    Yep, I've been receiving those updates for a while now and no problems. All it does is show you pictures of "some" of the mail you're going to receive today.

    I had it for a while and then one day it stopped. Checked the USPS site and they said it was no longer available in my area.

    I use it when I am expecting something special. I just recently turned it off after receiving an international shipment. I'll use it again.

    I like it but since they don’t scan the larger mail it doesn’t tell you the whole story. Obviously a lot of that is catalogs but at least once a week it’s something more important. If they scanned everything I would know whether to bother getting the mail.

    Even better would be to add a button that says “send to recycle bin”.

    I've been using it since it was first offered...in fact, I just received today's notice and was able to let Professor Dr SWMBO know that some important letters were arriving today about matter we're pursuing for our older daughter. I use the notification systems from USPS, UPS and FedEX and have for a long time now. And on days when there's a package placed in the mailbox by USPS, I also know that it's been delivered. We live in a rural-suburban area and our mailbox is at the end of a 350'+ driveway.

    They'll never do that because the overwhelming majority of their money comes from junk mail.
