What does return mail send

Return mail, also known as undeliverable mail, is mail that cannot be delivered to its intended recipient due to various reasons. Here are some common types of return mail:

  1. Undeliverable as Addressed: This is the most common type of return mail. The mailpiece is returned to the sender because the address is incorrect, incomplete, or does not exist.
  2. Refused: The recipient has refused to accept the mailpiece, often due to a high volume of junk mail or unwanted solicitations.
  3. Insufficient Address: The address is incomplete or missing essential information, making it impossible to deliver the mailpiece.
  4. Moved, Left No Forwarding Address: The recipient has moved and left no forwarding address, so the mailpiece is returned to the sender.
  5. Addressee Deceased: The recipient has passed away, and the mailpiece is returned to the sender.
  6. Addressee in Jail: The recipient is incarcerated and cannot receive mail.
  7. Return to Sender: The mailpiece is returned to the sender due to a variety of reasons, such as a wrong or incomplete return address.
  8. Undeliverable due to Customs: The mailpiece is returned to the sender due to customs issues, such as undeclared value or prohibited items.
  9. Undeliverable due to Postal Regulations: The mailpiece is returned to the sender due to non-compliance with postal regulations, such as incorrect postage or prohibited content.

When a mailpiece is returned to the sender, it is typically marked with a "Return to Sender" label or a similar notation. The sender can then update their records, correct the address, or take other actions to ensure the mailpiece is delivered to the intended recipient.
