envelope images

Not available in my area (none of my direct customers either) and not available for businesses but I would like to share for technology news. The United States Postal Service is starting an experimental service to share the  photos (scanned images from their sorting equipment) they already take of envelopes with the recipient in New York and Virginia.
There are private scanning services that offer a similar services. The private services will sometimes also scan the insides of your mail for you which the postal service does Not do (for your privacy rights).
Images of packages are not currently sent but that may change. I assume it is since different sorting equipment is used.
