interoffice mail

Between-departments delivery system

Interoffice mail is correspondence sent between departments or locations within the same organization, typically using reusable envelopes with multiple address lines that get crossed out and reused: The HR forms came through interoffice mail.

The system bypasses postal service, relying instead on internal messengers or mail rooms.
