Lew Post

Lew Post refers to a historical, potentially anecdotal, method of rapid mail delivery, particularly within or between offices or buildings. The term suggests an informal system, often involving a trusted individual (Lew, in this instance, possibly a person's name or a generic placeholder) quickly carrying documents or messages directly to the recipient. Unlike formal postal services, a "Lew Post" likely operated on a less structured and more personal basis, prioritizing speed and reliability over established protocols. The system's efficiency depended heavily on the carrier's knowledge of the location and the urgency of the message. Its prevalence would have been higher before the widespread adoption of internal mail systems, electronic communication, and instant messaging. The phrase may also refer humorously to any hurried or unofficial delivery service, even in a modern context.
