Etymology

The word 'mailed' is derived from the Old French word 'mail', which originally meant 'a bag' or 'a pouch'. This term evolved over time to refer specifically to bags used for transporting letters and parcels. The usage of 'mail' in the context of sending letters began in the late Middle Ages, around the 15th century, as postal systems began to formalize. By the 19th century, with the establishment of organized postal services, the term became widely associated with the dispatch of documents and parcels. The shift from physical bags to modern mailing methods reflects the technological changes in communication, but the root concept remains closely tied to the original meaning of transporting items securely.
