Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for processing mail after the Preamble of claim 1.

- the sender If the sender has acquired the fee stamps, he must provide the postal matter in the prescribed amount with fee stamps. This requires a thorough knowledge of the rather complicated fares. In addition, a corresponding supply of matching stamps is required.
- the cleared mail can then be stored at a collection point, for example at a counter during office hours or in a mailbox. During the transport of the postal matter, the amount of the postage will be checked and the fee stamp or the stamp will be canceled.

- the data can i.a. to be used to check the validity of the franking, but also the sorting and To simplify delivery.
- An otherwise usual franking of the mail as Stamp or franking imprint can be omitted if the franking in complete and accepted form on the identification mark itself, can be checked by the mail carrier and then also validated.
- the identification mark can be as a separate part as before a stamp from Postal carrier can be obtained. But it can also by a franking device or a computer with appropriate software on the packaging or the mail be imprinted or already integral part of the packaging or of the mail. In any case, the big disadvantage is that all fees relevant data from both the sender and the payee and the mail carrier must be recorded and examined.
- the invention is based on the object, the processing of mail to simplify and with little effort the availability of Improve conveyance service. It is according to the invention by the Characteristics of claim 1 solved. Further advantageous embodiments result from the dependent claims.

Furthermore, the mail is transported in any case, as one too low Franking by the postal carrier can be excluded. Thereby delays are avoided by a return, especially at bound postal articles can cause high consequential damages. Investments for the sender are eliminated or extremely low. Unless he is individual identification marks are procured by the postal carrier for a small fee, which are usable regardless of the transport fees, he can buy sufficient supplies so that he can frank his mail at any time and throw in a mailbox. He spares himself with fee stamps different value in stock and avoids the difficulties of Switches or vending machines, since he also the identification marks by telephone or request in writing or via the Internet.
- the tags require little storage space. in the the simplest case are adhesive labels similar to the stamps, just without predetermined value. Of course you can also use appropriate software a computer printed on the mail or the packaging material which also does not require high investment costs.
- the Identification marks could also be used with the usual means in banking be made counterfeit-proof.
- the information of the identification mark in machine-readable form may contain information required to calculate the fees and has already been added by the sender or the mail carrier.
- the mail carrier does not need to keep any fee stamps with different values in stock.
- he can completely dispense with the installation and maintenance of machines for fee stamps.
- the often associated with waiting times for the customer and high burden of postal staff surge times eliminated in the post office since any type of goods to be transported with the identification mark provided at the facilities provided can be set and then processed asynchronously by the staff of the postal service ,

Abstract
Description
Das freigemachte Postgut kann dann an einer Sammelstelle abgelegt werden, z.B. an einem Schalter während der Dienststunden oder in einem Briefkasten. Während der Beförderung des Postguts wird die Höhe des Portos überprüft und die Gebührenmarke bzw. der Aufdruck entwertet. Somit entsteht in der Regel eine Doppelbearbeitung, nämlich das erste Mal durch den Absender und das zweite Mal durch den Postbeförderer.
Dafür ergeben sich jedoch erhebliche Einsparungen. Der Postbeförderer braucht keine Gebührenmarken mit unterschiedlichen Werten vorrätig zu halten. Außerdem kann er auf die Installation und Wartung von Automaten für Gebührenmarken völlig verzichten. Weiterhin entfallen die häufig mit Wartezeiten für den Kunden und hoher Belastung des Postpersonals verbundenen Stosszeiten in den Postannahmestellen völlig, da jegliche Art von zu beförderndem Gut mit der Identifizierungsmarke versehen an den dafür vorgesehenen Einrichtungen eingestellt werden kann und dann asynchron vom Personal des Postbeförderungsdienstes verarbeitet werden kann.
