Abstract (en)
[origin: WO03015939A1] The invention relates to a method for sorting mail in a sorting machine (1), according to the distribution addresses. Illegible mail is sorted into special recirculation compartments (3,4,5), according to different reasons for the illegibility. The beginning and end of the pile of mail of the respective special recirculation compartment (3,4,5) are marked in a legible manner for the sorting machine (1), and the marked pile of mail is reintroduced into the mail input region (6) of the sorting machine (1), in the evaluation position and orientation. In the event of a renewed reading error on a mail article from a marked pile of mail from one of the special recirculation compartments (3,4,5), said mail article is sorted in an additional special compartment (11) from which it will not be reintroduced into the sorting machine (1).
