Put it in the post box and send it again. Probably got read backwards so returned to the sender.

Which side are the RM orange or black barcodes printed on?

Also, stop shouting.

Obscure the bar codes and resend it, if it was an official RTS then there would be a sticker- I think the automatic sorting machines have read the wrong side - in fact if its an important letter I would put it in a brand new envelope.

My friend just put it back in the post box last week and it has not been returned back, so is that a good thing? Does that mean the machine read it correctly this time round?
