I thought since I started this thread I would give an update. Shortly after posting it, I did sign up for the 3 free services, and I did get an email from the USPS outlining that I had been signed up for all three. Here are my reviews of the services:
* Signature on File: FAIL. I've only had one item that required a signature, and I got the standard form in my box and had to stand in line just like before to sign for it.
* Text or Email when you get mail: FAIL. What you get is an email in the morning stating that you will have mail at some point later in the day. And I have received this mail every day, including days where I had no mail in my box. Sometimes I get this email on Saturday and when I check my box on Monday- no mail.
* Street address delivery: UNKNOWN. Given the other two failures I've been too afraid to trust that this would work so I have not tried this feature.
