A guide device for moving flat pieces of mail from a conveyor arrangement and stacking the mail. The conveyor arrangement has a shunt for diverting mail to the guide device. The guide device includes a curved support surface and an outer lateral wall defining a curved deflection surface. The outer lateral wall has an upper portion, a lower portion having an outlet area, and an essentially spherically shaped transition area for moving the pieces of mail from an essentially vertical into an essentially horizontal position. The upper portion of the outer lateral wall has a height essentially equal to a height of the shunt. The upper portion of the wall adjoins the conveyor arrangement, and extends at an acute angel relative to the conveying direction. The upper portion of the wall is level along a length equal to a distance between an inner end point of the outlet area and a vertical line passing through a beginning point of the outer lateral wall. An area of the outer lateral wall corresponding to the outlet area forms a perpendicular angle relative to the conveying direction. The curved support surface and the outlet area form an outlet conduit having a narrowest width equal to a maximum height of the pieces of mail to be moved. The guide device includes a strap element located in the upper portion of the curved support surface and forming with the curved deflection surface an inlet conduit. - 31 -
