Effective January 4, 2010, the Postal Service™ will revise Mailing Standards of the United States Postal Service, Domestic Mail Manual (DMM®) 503.2.1 to allow a combined purchase of hardcopy and electronic return receipt service.
Current standards allow the purchase of either a hardcopy return receipt or an electronic return receipt, but not both. This revision permits a combined purchase that will accommodate customers who wish to purchase both.
