Hi all,

Bit of a long shot here but I am looking for a US based service that will do the following:

Allow us to enter a letter + address and have it printed out and then posted. The idea being that because the service is in the US it will then get to US addresses a lot quicker than if we do this manually here and rely on good old Royal Mail.

Royal Mail offer this service for Europe, I can go onto their web site and compose a letter on-line, enter an address in say France and they print it out and post it from within France.

Does anyone know if there is something like this perhaps by USPS?

Cheers,

Rich

I haven't heard of USPS doing anything like that, but UPS might offer a service along those lines. I'm not sure whether they'd actually be willing to mail things through USPS though.

It doesn't have to be USPS I guess.. any similar service would do.

Edit: USPS seem to offer a service called NetPost - which is almost exactly what I want, providing it can be automated.
