Don't you think this is outdated? The world would run better if there was mail on Sundays.

Mail? Jeez, I expect there won't be mail on most days of the week in this country; it's about the worst industry to be in atm.

In Canada they may pick it up on Saturdays but as far as I know it's always been Monday to Friday for delivery.

Ya in Finland it's pretty much the same.. UPS/DHL/FedEx/Schenker might deliver on weekends but not the National Postal Office(Posti)
And I'm totally fine with it

And the mail is probably getting more business than ever due to the increasing popularity of Internet businesses.

I think this is true. Personally, I give the postal service a lot of business, mainly because of things i've ordered online. I've only rarely had problems with them losing a package, and they're almost always on time, like clockwork.
I can see them being obsolete someday, but today is not that day.

Still part of the mailing system though, right?

Agreed, who really uses mail aside from companies trying give you their catalogs so you buy things and the companies you pay your bills to.
And of course lame tacky greeting cards when its your birthday with a check for $25.
And when you order stuff online.
Yeah mail is pretty outdated I feel. I wish it weren't so is a cool system but it doesn't have the same importance to compete against the high tech telephones or computers.
