When MappyMail may not be the right choice
MappyMail is designed to make sending one physical letter simple and convenient. Another communication method may be a better fit if your message is better suited for email, you need your message delivered the same day, or you do not know the recipient's mailing address or where the recipient is located on a map.
If your message deserves the presence of a physical letter, MappyMail is designed to make sending one as simple as possible.
