I think most mail is photographed as part of the address scanning
and routing process.  Humans don't do the sorting.

The USPS does not open a letter or package and photograph the
contents.  The photo I receive from Informed Delivery is just the
package shipping label or the front of the envelope.  Most of the
photos are B&W while magazines are in color.

Note that Informed Delivery is also available for businesses:

I found this document that describes how Informed Delivery might be
beneficial to both the sender and recipient for an "interactive mail
campaign".

I skimmed the above PDF.  I don't understand it and don't want to read
it.  It might be of interest to a junk mail service.
