Additional services provided may include bulk mailings and specialty mailings including certified, insured, and/or overnight mail delivery.

The meter shall be used for official University mail only, defined as mail that furthers the purpose of the University and/or is necessary to conduct the business of the University. The metering of personal mail through the University postage meter constitutes the misuse of State funds and is not allowed.
