Understood, and mostly agreed. However, snail mail still has its place for documents where a fascimile or a soft copy won't do. I know I have to submit original receipts for my expense reports, not photocopies, and I have to mail, not fax them. This is for legal/tax reporting reasons, not technological ones. I'm no accountant, but I wouldn't be surprised if similar requirements were at the bottom of the whole invoice issue.
