USPS Tests Out Emailing Your Mail, Masters Redundancy

You could start getting emails about your mail. You will get to see your junk mail before you actually get it. The future is now!

United States Postal Service is testing a “notification” service that emails customers images of the envelopes of their letter-size mail. The service, called Informed Delivery, will send out an email to customers each morning with that day’s mailbox contents. The images are only of the exterior front side, and the mail will not be opened.

I'm not so sure about this idea. Am I the only one who likes to be surprised when I go to the mailbox? It kinda takes the fun out of it doesn't it? Also, an email about my mail? I'm surprised that it's not from the "Department of Redundancy Department".
