One of my favorite methods is to put my QSL inside the return envelope 
inside my envelope to overseas.  My SAE's are smaller and just fit inside 
the larger #10 envelopes.

Then I cut a piece of carbon paper just barely smaller than the inside of 
the #10 envelope (the larger one) and put it inside so the carbon is 
facing away from my smaller envelope (so it doesn't get smudged).

This prevents people from "candling" the envelopes to see inside.  You 
just can't see through the carbon paper.

This has worked well for me. Of course, I never put ham callsigns on the 
outside of the envelope and I have the post office put on a printed 
(metered) postage sticker instead of a stamp when I can.
