I noticed that too, some of the destinations that used to require boxes to be handed across the counter no longer do, but I don't know if every destination has been given that treatment or not.

I'll be a sheep this time and wait in line just to make sure, but yes, that is a big win I would imagine!

If it has the round postal cancellation mark with the date on it in the lower corner when it prints, then you can just sign it and toss it in a mailbox.

:r @ this thread all to send out a box... :r

Reminds me of the episode of Big Bang Theory where they are setting something up for Penny and end up tossing the plans and all scatter to get "other" pieces for a high tech install after they over-thought the hell out of it. lol

Good information to have either way.

If it prints your name in the signature field then you don't even need to sign them any more (part of the recent changes). The USPS considers this a digital signature and is considered validated as part of your purchase.
