I got an email offering it to me since I was signed up for package tracking, but I believe anyone can sign up if they create a free USPS account and choose "informed delivery." They scan all the letters coming to you and you get a digest of them every morning. It's useful too to know if something has been misdelivered. |

Just signed up, took 5 minutes. Best thing learned since reading these posts! Just Google it.

Troll. |
I just signed up. It says we have no mail today. 0_0 That's odd! Is that normal or is it just too early. How does this work? |
It says I failed security questions and won’t let me sign up. What a scam. |
Yes but you could say this about EVERY stage of parenting, really. It's a jaded "been there, done that" perspective...but it's your perspective because you are beyond it now. I don't think you would have appreciated someone constantly saying "you think *that's* something to worry about?...just wait 'til he starts crawling!" when you were anxious about your sleepless nights with your newborn, do you? Same thing here. I remember being elated when I got our preschool acceptance letter (it was a lottery) and of course I look back on that and laugh about how silly that seems from a distance. But in the moment, it was my LIFE! And if you can't relate, you don't have to post here or belittle those who do. Just move on. No one is hurting you by sharing their anxiety with each other. (And I doubt anyone is getting "an ulcer" over any of this. Lots of hyperbole actually makes you appear more irrational than the posters you are trying to dismiss.) |
That's not what "scam" means. |
They don’t even have correct information about me and they’re saying I failed the security questions. Yeah it is. |
Plus they took my personal information during the sign up process. Scam! |
I usually get mine in the morning but sometimes it isn't until later depending on when things get scanned. It will also say no mail if all you have coming is magazines or fliers because it only scans envelopes. I will say when I first signed up it took a day or two before I started seeing what mail I had coming. |
... it's from the USPS website. It's not a scam. I would be more concerned that there is some weird info on your credit report or something throwing it off. Obviously it is working for many people. |
| No letter yet. |
| I signed up as soon as I read about the postal scanning notifications. The security questions were tough, had to look up in my records. Got notice in 15 minutes of a package on the way and an hour later when it arrived. This is a very nice service. Hoping to see the results on the way Monday! |
| The waiting is killing me! |
