A mail processing method of a mail processing device having a one-mail-piece sending portion 11 which sends mail P one by one, buffers 10 and 9 which are continuously arranged, amount detecting sensors 15c and 15b which detect the full states of the one-mail-piece sending portion 11 and the buffer 10, a transport belt 13b which transports the mail in the buffer 10 to the one-mail-piece sending portion 11, and a transport belt 13a which transports the mail in the buffer 9 to the buffer 10 includes: prompting the transport belt 13b to transport the mail to the one-mail-piece sending portion 11 when the amount detecting sensor 15c does not detect the full state of the one-mail-piece sending portion 11; and prompting the transport belt 13a to transport the mail to the buffer 10 when the amount detecting sensor 15b does not detect the full state of the buffer 10.
