Abstract

A method of separating mail items (38) of a first group from mail items (38) of a second group determines a boundary between the first and second group. A moveable distributing part (56) is placed at the boundary next to a side of a selected mail item (38) that belongs to the first or second group. The distributing part (56) carries indicators (60), for example, adhesive labels. The indicators (60) are advanced on the distributing part (56) to position a foremost indicator (60) next to the side of the selected mail item. The foremost indicator (60) is brought into contact with the side of the selected mail item, so that this indicator (60) adheres to the selected mail item. The applied indicator (60) protrudes from the selected mail item to visibly indicate a boundary between two groups.
