USPS Considering Delivery of Snail-Mail Based on e-Mail Address?

Bem Charny writes on eWeek:

The U.S. Postal Service was recently asked to start delivering packages and letters based on someone's e-mail rather than street address.

The request is from Los Angeles-based Inventerprise LLC, which wants to conduct a trial run of its so-called Shelmail e-mail-to-snail addressing system sometime in 2008.

The Shelmail proposal is noteworthy because it suggests that e-mail addresses are a better means of delivering physical mail than what the postal service uses now.
