I'd prefer to work off copies of your originals, just in case they are lost in the mail. Of course, if you send them insured or via other secure method that involves delivery confirmation and a signature (UPS/FedEx Ground) that wouldn't be a problem. It's really up to you.
Copies are the way to go. Insurance just gives you a little money when they are lost--not the lost data! Tracking, etc., just allows you to see where (approximately) it got lost. ;-) I don't generally have much problem with the USPS--just pointing out that paying more doesn't significantly reduce the probability of the rare loss of a package. -michael NadaNet and AppleCrate II: parallel computing for Apple II computers!
