This new system aims to improve how the USPS handles undeliverable mail by consolidating related functions and using updated scanner technology to manage lost and undeliverable items more efficiently. The proposed changes are intended to provide better customer service by making it easier for USPS to notify customers about their lost mail, including sending images of lost checks, while ensuring privacy and security standards are maintained. The revisions will automatically take effect on February 12, 2021, unless any objections are raised before that date.
