    Denmark is removing post boxes from all over the country, as we speak.


    >>> Starting June 1, 2025, Denmark began removing its 1,500 post boxes, with full removal expected by the end of the year.

    Although letter delivery is ending, PostNord will continue parcel delivery services and transition many of its employees to this growing area of business.

    Danes can still use existing mailboxes until removal, and unused postage stamps can be refunded in 2026.

    If a hand-filled form has a place to PRINT and a place to SIGN,
    do these appear exactly the same for a bunch of people?

    I can imagine that some people have to write more slowly
    than they "sign" if they want the letters to be clear.
