<p>The present invention relates to a post handling system to be used when sending a letter from a sender, said letter to be delivered as a physical letter at a postal address of a receiver, said system adapted for communicating with multiple geographically distributed printing and enveloping stations generating physical letters based on electronically received content information and addressee information, wherein said physical letters are to be delivered on postal routes, e.g. by a postal worker, wherein said system comprises
- means for receiving letter data comprising
o content information regarding the content of said letter
o address information identifying the postal address of the receiver,
- means for sorting and ordering said received letter data according to said address information,
- means for generating a printing list to a printing and enveloping station, wherein said printing list is made based on predefined postal routes and wherein said printing list is for printing letters in a sequence sorted according to said postal routes. Thereby, a much simpler distribution process of collecting, sorting and distributing is obtained, where all steps are handled electronically, and where the letters are not generated in a postal route specific manner, until the letters are to be delivered on a postal route.</p> |
