Abstract
From received postal items patterns are recorded and recorded information representing the recorded patterns is generated. Each received postal item is processed directly after the information is recorded from the postal item. The information representing the recorded patterns is stored in a log of received mail. Since the recordal of the pattern is carried out before the step of processing, any log or archive prepared on the basis of the initial recording step will include any documents which are lost or damaged during the subsequent processing.
