In Switzerland, the public post company provides a service[0] which scans your incoming letters (i.e. their content, not just the envelope) and makes it available via the web and an app. I started using this service last December and am very happy. Kinda looks like I am forcing digitalisation upon organisations who don't want to make progress on it :D

It costs 9.99 CHF per month, hence within the limit of the post, and very much worth it.

For those in the US, the USPS (postal service) provides this for free. Yay! Probably because of theft problems :-(

It seems I have not been clear enough: This service opens your mail and scans the actual content of the letters to PDF files. It's not just the address box or the envelope!

That USPS service you posted is already available for free from Swiss Post as well.

Oh, you were clear, I just missed it. Cool service :-)
