Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2006008087A1] The invention relates to a method for sorting mail and, in particular, to the route order sorting thereof. The method is characterised in that postcode addresses applied to the mailings are recorded before the sorting process to give route order sorting, on the basis of the recorded postcodes it is determined which address points have mail and, on arranging the address points, those address points for which there is not at least one mailing are suppressed. The invention further relates to a device suitable for both sorting mail by address and also for route order sorting of mail. Said method and device are particularly suitable or the sorting of large and oversize letters.
