The glue on self-seal envelopes goes off after a while - I've ended up with a huge box which don't stick any more. I use those on the outward journey and glue the flap down.

For the reply envelope I always use peel and seal, they are a bit more expensive but the glue lasts a lot longer.

I hate licking gummed envelopes and I wouldn't expect someone I was writing to to enjoy it either, so I don't use them.
