If you're like me you rarely have time to filter through all your junk mail, bills, and letters on a daily basis. Why not start a business where a customer's mail is forwarded to the business. The business would then scan each item into a pdf and email it to the customer. If the customer actually needs any of the physical documents they could be picked up at the business were they would be held/sent for a given length of time. Documents left over the time limit would be shredded.

The one problem I could see arise is all that junk mail would still be burying the relevant mail even inside the PDF (I assume the robots will scan it since humans are less reliable and add to overhead like the eight people laid off thanks to a robot at Lincoln Electric Arc-Welder SuperCorporation back in the 80s). However, why not install software in Outlook that also digests all daily your e-mail in a PDF and delivers it to your inbox at 7 a.m. next morning like a newspaper. With software you can make rules about which emails appear first in the PDF, and your inbox would be clean with only one e-mail per day!
Let's take this a step back. Why not get the sender to send you the pdf in the first place.
