Yes, mail can be either stamped or metered. Stamped mail uses adhesive postage stamps affixed to the envelope, while metered mail uses a postal meter to print the postage directly onto the mailpiece. Both methods are valid for sending letters and packages, but metered mail often allows for more precise postage amounts and can be more convenient for bulk mailing.
