- Include the full resident name and resident number, plus a legible, legitimate sender name and return address.

- Faint pages, glued layers, loose objects, or other non-scannable material
- Electronic, musical, padded, layered, pop-up, scented, or glittered cards
- Personal correspondence combined with legal, certified, signature, identification, or publication mail
