Mail & Letters
Incoming mail at Outagamie County Jail goes through the U.S. Postal Service and gets inspected for contraband. Like many Wisconsin facilities, personal letters are routed through third-party scanning services—inmates receive digital copies while the originals may be kept briefly or destroyed after the retention period. Legal and medical correspondence bypasses routine scanning and follows special handling rules. To avoid delays, address your envelope with your full name and return address, plus the inmate's full legal name, booking/inmate number, and facility name. Books, magazines, and newspapers must be prepaid and shipped directly from the publisher or an approved vendor. Hardcovers are often refused.

The only reference found points to an MSBpay portal for Outagamie County Airport, not the jail. At many Wisconsin facilities, deposits go through third-party vendors and may be available online, by phone, at a lobby kiosk, through approved walk-in locations, or by mail. Funds typically post to the inmate's account for commissary and other approved uses. The facility may apply deposits to outstanding debts before releasing the remaining balance. Generally, you'll choose a deposit method, enter the inmate's name and ID, review fees, and submit payment. If mailing funds, use a money order or cashier's check—not cash or personal checks.
