Reading Your Postal Mail Online 173
An anonymous reader writes "Remote Control Mail gives us one more reason not to leave our computers. Their service lets you access your postal mail on the Web. They offer scanning of mail contents, shredding, recycling and shipping. There's a good writeup on Techcrunch, complete with a CAD animation showing some robotics technology (Flash Movie) that RCM is developing to automate mail handling. The service costs $25 to get started and $20 a month for individuals." Now if we could only reply the same way.

This is very cool! But I'm not sure what NetFlix and Blockbuster (among others) are going to think about this! Finally, an easy way to get DVD's onto my computer!

Do they have a form of penalty system if your mail blows-up the shredder?

If my gf sends me panties, will someone sniff it for me?
When the brother of the ex-president of Nigeria sends me his check, will they PayPal it to me?
See, unless it does all the things I use my snail mail for, it's useless to me.

Chicks are good at opening other people's mail anyway. Just ask your mother or your wife - "oh sorry I opened it I thought it was for me...". Never heard THAT one before...
