Methods and systems are disclosed for processing mailpieces (fig. 7 element 700). Images of mailpieces processed by a first mail processing device (fig. 7 element 706) and a second mail processing device are captured. The images are stored in a coding system at mail processing plant, and the images are sorted at the coding system according to time characteristics (fig. 7 element 708). The image are transmitted from the mail processing plant to a remote location. An encoding center at the remote location processes the images to obtain mail processing data from the images. Mail processing data is transmitted from the encoding center to the mail processing plant, and the mail processing devices process the mailpieces using the mail processing data from the encoding center (fig. 7 element 716). It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive of the invention, as claimed.
