Any idea who coined the term ? Jay 14:46, 15 Feb 2004 (UTC)

This is a dictionary definition, and one of geek slang at that. Move to Wiktionary. -- Tarquin 14:37, 6 May 2004 (UTC)

List at Vfd to see if you get any support. Jay 10:37, 7 May 2004 (UTC)

"Snail Mail" does not bring up the USPS as first Google result any more.

My diaries from the 1960s and 1970s show that I used the term "snail mail" in reference to land vs. air delivery of first class mail. In a letter to a friend I said she should write to me either by regular mail or air mail, but "even if you use snail mail, write to me," I wrote in a letter. That letter may not still be extant, but my diaries are, where I recorded letters before I sent them. 69.177.165.251 12:48, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mail

This page contains a little bit of Mail Maybe they should be merged or something? I mean, most of it isn't really that different. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Arienh4 (talk • contribs) 15:56, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
