no.\n\nthe post office is a government run institution and is run in the same manner as the dmv. if you mail a letter, it will take a day to get picked up, sorted, routed, resorted, and delivered as soon as the mail person comes back from their lunch break. \n\nits very similar to standing in line at the dmv. you wait in line, sometimes for hours, wait for a window to open up, and just when you are inching ever so closer to the window, the clerk gets up from their window desk, slaps a sign that says "back in 3 days" and then disappears into the back room never to be seen again. \n\noh, and if you mail a letter, make sure you use proper postage or it won't get there at all.

No. But it looks like you are bored. Here's a joke:\n\nAn Illinois man left the snow-filled streets of Chicago for a vacation in Florida. His wife was on a business trip and was planning to meet him there the next day.\n\nWhen he reached his hotel, he decided to send his wife a quick email. Unable to find the scrap of paper on which he had written her email address, he did his best to type it in from memory.\n\nUnfortunately, he missed one letter and his note was directed instead to an elderly preacher's wife, whose husband had passed away only the day before. When the grieving widow checked her email, she took one look at the monitor, let out a piercing scream and fell to the floor in a dead faint. At the sound, her family rushed into the room and saw this note on the screen:\n\nDEAREST WIFE: JUST GOT CHECKED IN. EVERYTHING PREPARED FOR YOUR ARRIVAL TOMORROW.\nP.S. SURE IS HOT DOWN HERE.

When I was in college, I spent a semester interning for my Senator.  As an intern, a big part of my job was opening and reading mail.  While most of his mail was intelligible, there was a small but significant portion that was composed entirely of crazed, semi-coherent, train of though diatribes about the government; these were often written entirely in capital letters.\n\nI'm not sure why I thought of that just now - something must have sparked my memory.

Yes.  You will receive it in the mail.

What's the context?  Is this referring to "self-addressed stamped envelope"?

Yes, I believe it has. The notion that cell phones and email bring people closer together is nonsense. Technology is great - but from my observations, I think it encourages rudeness and "selective politeness" (i.e. talking on your cell when you're supposed to be talking to the person you are with, or saying "oh, I must not have gotten your email" even though you did...) In the "old days" people had front porches so they could say hi to their neighbors as they were walking down the street. Nowadays, we mostly have decks facing our backyards so we don't have to be bothered by other people. I don't know, just my $0.02. :)

if you want mail, you need to supply an address, stay safe

Depends on where it occurred, It is only an offense so long as it is in transit. Once you receive it, it is no longer considered "mail" for legal purposes.

Used to happen to me a lot. Unfortunately you can't prove it. One time they delivered it in one of those bags that say your mail has been damaged, but with a really obvious slit down one side, it was fairly obvious to me who'd done the damaging. From now on I ask people who are going to send me cards to send them in a plain brown envelope. That way it's less obvious in the post.

People spell it both ways, but it's really "e-mail".

About three days only. Do some checking, who knows they delivered your mail at the wrong house. It could happen sometimes. A couple of times I received a mail that doesn't belong to me. It's to our neighbors. All I did is return it to the right person the day I got them in the mail. There must be some who just don't care in this world so please do some checking.

"Being mailed" means being sent via the United States Postal Service.\n\n"Being emailed" means being sent via electronic mail.

Don't think so. It's just a notice that your e mail wasn't delivered - usually because of the wrong address.
