mail-ins
Sent from home
Mail-ins are items submitted by mail rather than in person or electronically.
The term appears most often in political contexts: mail-in ballots allow voters to cast their votes from home.
A mail-in rebate requires sending proof of purchase to receive money back.
As an adjective, mail-in describes this method: a mail-in voting system, mail-in registration.
