In the Emirates, you can track your mail by SMS

This is cool. The Emirates Post has launched 'SMS Post', a new service that allows customers to track the status of their mail and parcels with their mobile phones.

To get the status report, customers send an SMS with their receipt number to 7678 (which reads POST on the mobile phone keypad) and Emirates Post will reply back through an SMS.

The service, however, is applicable only to parcels, Express Mail, Registered Mail, Money Orders, Ministry of Labour documents or any other service that has a barcode or a receipt number. [via Emirates News Agency]
