Embodiment Construction

[0051] The scheme, as designed, stipulates that the sender's advance directives are coded into the mail. Basically, a sufficient amount of information is required for each machine-readable code, which contains an identifier unique to the sender, by means of which the sender's advance directives are deposited in a database and can be recalled from it.

[0052] A particular advantage is that the advance order will be integrated in a computer-controlled postage scheme.

[0053] Corresponding codes for postage refer to a matrix sequence (DMC) containing customer information, an identification code for unambiguous identification of the mailpiece, billing number, instructions for the method of postage payment, and the date of postage payment. In order to eliminate the occurrence of abusive postage schemes, the matrix sequence is coded in a suitable way.

[0054] In the matrix sequence (DMC), the description of the sender's advance order is included according to the existing design ...

Abstract

A method for processing mailings comprising wrong recipient addresses, according to which the wrong recipient address is determined from a detected copy of a mailing surface. The inventive method is characterized in that a) a code containing data on instructions given ahead of time is detected on the surface of the mailing, and the instructions that were given ahead of time are determined based on the detected code; b) the wrong address is compared to address data in at least one database selected among a plurality of databases in accordance with the instructions that were given ahead of time; and c) a pieced of forwarding data is applied to the mailings in accordance with the result of the comparison and the instructions given ahead of time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for processing mails with wrong receiving addresses. The wrong receiving addresses in the mails are determined by a detection image on the surface of the mails. Background technique [0002] Address errors generally occur when mail introduces an address that is already stale or has been continuously invalid. [0003] When a forwarding address exists, an already stale address can be corrected using the inventive process. [0004] German patent DE 101 50 560 A1 describes a development of registered mail processing, in which addresses provided by mail are compared in a database containing old addresses and current addresses. By means of a database query, the provided address (wrong address) is assigned to a corrected address and inserted into the mail as a new address. [0005] German patent DE 196 44 163 A1 describes a process for continuing mail processing online. During this process, the name and address of the reci...
