7. Frequently Asked Questions
Electronic Filing 
of Certified Mail
1.  What is the benefit of electronically filing Cer ti fied 
Mail?
 
Similar to Delivery and Signature Confirmation, our 
system transfers tracking in for ma tion about Cer ti fied 
Mail to the Post Office. This information is matched 
with actual delivery in for ma tion, and is sent back for 
posting on our web site at:
 
www.pb.com
 
Using the Delivery Tracking System on our web site, 
you have complete access to de liv ery information.
2.  Can I use the information on the web site in court 
as proof of mailing or delivery of a mail piece us-
 ing Certified Mail, Delivery Con fir ma tion or Sig-
 na ture Confirmation?
 
Our mailing systems provide quick and con ve nient 
access to delivery information. We make no claims 
regarding “legal proof” when you use our mailing prod-
 ucts to process USPS Special Services. 
3.  Do I get a discount for electronically filing Cer ti fied 
Mail using my mailing system?
 
No. A major benefit of using the mailing system is web 
track ing of First-Class Mail. Prices for Cer ti fied Mail 
are not discounted with elec tron ic filing (as is the case 
with Delivery Confirmation and Sig na ture Con fir ma-
 tion).
4.  How much does a Return Receipt cost in addition 
to First Class Mail and Certified Mail?
