Finding in the mail a letter or greeting card that has a handwritten address is always a most welcome sight.

In the past year or so, I tracked down two former ladyfriends from 30+ years ago that I had not seen nor heard from in the intervening years. I sent them a card and a brief note with an update on myself, and both of them responded by mail -- it's something very unique to make contact with someone after such a span of time and I think a handwritten note makes it more special than either a phone call or e-mail.

Also, I received a handwritten note from an internet penpal, and it seemed much more personal and "real" than internet correspondence.

But I'm glad that we have e-mail, mostly for the immediacy of it.
