# Virtual Mailbox for Agents

> A real receiving address so postal mail can come back into the workflow.

## What it does

- Provision a real mailing address
- Receive inbound postal mail and business documents
- Request scans, photos, OCR, forwarding, holds, and other mailbox actions
- Route scanned mail and approvals back into software

## Best fit

Start here when the workflow needs a real physical return path instead of treating mail as a one-way send.

## Why this matters

Without inbound receiving, physical mail is still a dead end. A virtual mailbox lets reply mail, notices, and business documents re-enter the same system as scans, machine-readable events, and approvals.
