Sample
Your email, formatted as a letter
Dear Taylor,
Just a little note to say we are thinking of you. The garden is full of color this week, and we finally tried your apple pie recipe.
I thought you would enjoy a letter you can keep. Looking forward to catching up soon.
With love, Alex

Interactive sample. No email is sent.
From inbox to mailbox
Four steps. One less thing to do.
02
Set your rules
Choose which emails to match, where letters go, their appearance, and your sending limits.
03
Email & review
Send or forward an email. Review its formatted PDF, or use an autosend rule you have authorized.
04
We print & mail
The approved letter is printed and mailed through LetterStream, with delivery by USPS.
Inboxes are checked every 10 minutes by default. An administrator can configure the interval. Postal delivery takes additional time.
Set it up your way
Simple to send. Plenty of control.
A personal note should feel personal. A business letter should be consistent. Save the details once, then let your rules handle the next email.
An inbox that knows where to send
Request a unique email address for your workspace. Match a sender or recipient, optionally filter by subject, and assign a US mailing address to each rule.
Approve first. Automate when ready.
Review and edit each draft before mailing, or explicitly authorize autosend for trusted rules. Unauthenticated senders still need manual approval.
A budget you control
Set per-letter, daily, and monthly spending limits, a daily letter count, and a maximum page count. Sending stays within your prepaid credits.
Make it look like a real letter
Start with Times Roman or choose from 12 Google fonts. Set font size, spacing, margins, a greeting, and a text signature.
Keep the details that matter
Hide printed To and From fields, subject, date, or address blocks. Remove recognizable quoted replies and choose whether to show page numbers.
A history you can keep
Review incoming emails and letter status in one workspace. Preview your letters, download the formatted PDF, and save the original email as an EML file.

Works with your AI assistant.
The complete Email to Letter workflow is available through MCP.
Read the MCP guideWith a workspace API key, your assistant can request an inbox, manage rules and budgets, preview a sample, edit drafts, review history, and download PDFs or original emails. Approval and mailing retain your authorization requirements. Administrators can manage polling through MCP, too.
Example request: “Set up a rule for emails from Alex, use a personal letter style with my signature, and hold every letter for my approval.”
Email to Letter questions, answered.
How do I send a physical letter from an email?
Create a DirectMailAmerica account, request your unique inbox, and save a rule with the sender or recipient email to match and the US mailing address. Send or forward an email to that inbox. Matching messages become formatted letter drafts for approval, or are mailed under an autosend rule you have authorized.
Do I need to install anything?
No. Use your existing email app to send to your generated inbox, and manage rules and letters in your browser. Developers and AI assistants can also use the hosted MCP server with a workspace API key.
How often is the inbox checked?
The default check interval is 10 minutes. An administrator can change the interval or pause polling. Email processing and postal delivery are separate steps; this is not an instant delivery service.
Can I approve each letter before it is mailed?
Yes. Choose approval mode to review the PDF, edit the letter, see the price, and approve or reject it. Autosend requires your explicit authorization. Messages whose sender cannot be authenticated still require manual approval.
How do I limit spending?
Set a maximum cost per letter, daily and monthly spending budgets, and a daily letter count. Rules also have a maximum page count. Sending uses prepaid workspace credits and stops when a budget would be exceeded or credits are insufficient.
Can I hide email headers and add my own signature?
Yes. Choose which To, From, subject, date, and address fields appear on the printed letter. Add a greeting and text signature, remove recognizable quoted replies, and set font size, spacing, margins, and page numbers. Times Roman is the default, with 12 Google fonts also available. The envelope still uses the mailing address from your rule.
Are email attachments and images printed?
Email to Letter formats the email's text body into a letter, including text extracted from HTML emails. Attachments and embedded images are not printed automatically. You can download the original email from history, or use the standard Send a Letter workspace to mail a finished PDF.
What does it cost, and where can I send?
Email to Letter sends First-Class letters to US addresses. The first page costs $1.49, with $0.25 for each additional page. Printing, envelope, and First-Class postage are included. Pay from prepaid workspace credits; no subscription is required.
