Claim 12:
13. A card/carrier combination diverter mechanism, comprising:
an input configured to receive a plurality of folded card/carrier combinations that are not in envelopes one-by-one into the card/carrier combination diverter mechanism;
a transport path extending from the input along which the plurality of folded card/carrier combinations are transported in the card/carrier combination diverter mechanism;
a first output in communication with the transport path through which select ones of the plurality of folded card/carrier combinations are output, the first output being connectable to an inserter system;
a second output in communication with the transport path through which additional ones of the plurality of folded card/carrier combinations are output, the second output being connectable to a sorter mechanism;
a diverter in the transport path that is engageable with the folded card/carrier combinations to divert the folded card/carrier combinations to the second output.
