''Unconscious or not, mail-artists are not without aesthetic preferences. Yet, their individual aesthetic opinions don't have much influence on the communicative working of the Network.'' Guy Bleus, Communication: 44 statements.
Ross, Xerox (read copygraphy, multi-copy, etc...) almost killed mailart in the 70s and many mailartists sort of ran away from mailart because of xerox. I have my personnal opinion whicj is open for discussion. Of course, I will never put aside works sent to me that are xerox because mailart is not to be judged. Mailart is about communication with a personnal touch.
