ABSTRACT:
Using a unique, mailer applied PLANET bar code offered by the U.S. Postal Service (USPS), a mail tracking system automatically sends an electronic message to the mailer once mail passes through mail processing machines at each USPS facility. The message to the mailer preferably includes the location of the mail, the time and date the mail is in the USPS facility, and optionally the destination of the mail.
