Reduce time and error by saving all of your presort settings for your next mailing tasks!

addresses, remove duplicates, presort mail and more with a click of a mouse. Now anyone in your office can prepare a mailing at any time; no postal knowledge required. The “Watch Folder” waits for a file to arrive and then automatically processes the job script you created. The “Script Timer” can begin processing a list on the day and time you decide.

ADD-ON MODULES

MOVE UPDATE MODULE (MUV)™
SmartAddresser 5’s Move Update option provides new address information from the USPS® NCOALink® and ANKLink™ systems when the addressee has filed a permanent Change of Address (COA).
1 in 7 individuals or businesses changing their address every year. Wrong addresses mean wasted printing, postage and time, not to mention lost opportunities and the potential harm to your reputation in the eyes of your customers. With tighter rules from the USPS for mailers to update their data through an approved Move Update process to qualify for automation and other discounts, SmartAddresser 5’s MUV Module is a great way for you to comply with these regulations and reduce your UAA mail. The MUV Module is easy to use, simple to understand and now faster than ever before! Flexible purchase options make it affordable for any size user. What's more, you never leave the familiar SmartAddresser 5 interface; simply click on the NCOALink button and your lists are processed in real time.

ADVANCED SORTATION MODULES (ASM)™
A host of powerful new Presort Options within SmartAddresser 5 offer unparalleled power and control over each mailing. There's also a suite of Advanced Sortation Modules that give you more power when and where it is needed. These modules integrate seamlessly into SmartAddresser 5 to ensure that every single mailing is a success, boosting efficiency and saving you money.

PALLETIZATION MODULES
SmartAddresser 5 Palletization Module options are a must have option if you are a high volume mailer. You will soon enjoy all of the additional savings and increased delivery speeds that are available to mailers who palletize. Mail stacked in the correct order and format on pallets also involves less handling during the mailing process, meaning your mailpieces tend to arrive at their destination in better condition. The Palletization Modules support tray-based, sack-based and package-based Palletization options, with Standard Mail®, Periodicals and Package Services presorts available to you.

PACKAGE SERVICES – BOUND PRINTED MATTER MODULE
Are Bound Printed Matter, Library Mail and Media Mail® on your list of common mailing categories? If not, talk to your local Postal Representative to find out if your mailings qualify for these generous postal discount programs. Media Mail is an economical way to mail books, CDs, DVDs and more. Library Mail is used for mail between universities, libraries, museums and other qualified organizations. These modules support barcoded discounts for Bound Printed Matter shipments and destination discounts for Presorted and Carrier Route flats and machinable and irregular parcels. All USPS documentation is produced automatically.

MAIL.DAT MODULE
Eliminate the postal paper chase with the Mail.dat Module, which uses the industry standard Mail.dat data format to allow the transmission of Postal Service Qualification reports electronically, for easier and faster postal acceptance and for a more streamlined payment process, as part of the PostalOne!® program. The details of any mailing are standardized so they can be addressed and understood by anyone in any department. All mailing classes supported in SmartAddresser 5 are also supported by the Mail.dat Module. Make lengthy and cumbersome paper postal reports a thing of the past – move up to the Mail.dat Module.

MAIL MANIFESTING
The SmartAddresser 5 Mail Manifesting Module allows you to document mailings containing pieces of different weights and thicknesses to comply with the USPS manifest mailing system and receive all eligible postal discounts. The Mail Manifesting Module generates USPS-approved documentation for mail pieces of different weights and thicknesses. One of the biggest advantage of manifesting is that it allows mailers to pay for non-identical weight pieces with a permit imprint.

EARLY WARNING SYSTEM (EWS) MODULE
Did you know that postal addresses are often assigned before a proposed office building or new home is ever built? The Early Warning System was designed as another step towards increased address accuracy. The system is used to prevent you making changes to an address that may actually be new construction and has not been added to the ZIP + 4® database. During Address Correction, if an address is identified as part of the EWS file, SmartAddresser 5 does not append the usual address changes, but informs you that the address will soon become valid. The EWS file is updated weekly so you remain current. Don't delete prospects that will have a new house or office in the next 30 to 45 days. They may turn out to be your best customers!

TAGS MODULE
Do you receive pre-addressed mail without the actual mailing list? This powerful add-on module to SmartAddresser 5 gives you the power to print the required Barcoded Tray and Sack Tags without having the list on the computer. Your Tags can then be saved for future retrieval. The Tags Module is ideal for those customers who must prepare mailings from preprinted labels, plain paper, or envelopes.
