• | TrackMyMail® is a solution sold by Pitney Bowes which allows a mailer to track every piece of mail shipped |
• | With TrackMyMail® configured, a file will be uploaded to a Pitney Bowes FTP server which will provide a mailer the ability to search and view all mail that has been delivered to the post office. |
• | Before starting the implementation the mailer should contact their Pitney Bowes representative responsible for the sale of TrackMyMail®. Pitney Bowes will provide all user / login information needed as well as FTP site credentials in order to successfully upload your TrackMyMail® file. |
Basic Items Needed:
1. | User ID and Password for customer |
3. | Mailer ID for the mailer. (Pitney Bowes will assign this number) |
4. | Email address of mailer contact, who will be responsible for tracking mailpieces, or one designated to receive the confirmations of delivery. |
5. | Intelligent Mail® barcode range numbers. (numbers assigned to each mailpiece for tracking. Numbers cannot be used more than once. Pitney Bowes will assign this range of numbers). |
