Is asking for letters with your name and address as verification outdated?

I had to update my address on my driver's license and they needed a couple pieces of mail with my new address and name on it to verify but I hadn't gotten any mail at the new place yet.

Then I started thinking about it more and realized I haven't actually received a letter addressed specifically to me in over a year, possibly in over 3 years. I have everything set to send by email because it isn't 1950 anymore. Am I just a loser with no corporate pen pals or is physical mail an antiquated form of address verification now?
