Is that really true? Suppose someone was required to send something to someone else, but wanted to pretend that they had done so when actually they hadn't. All they'd need to do is send an empty envelope or blank piece of paper... "Windmill" wrote > If it did not in fact do so, the recipient might > be expected to complain to the sender. If someone just receives an empty envelope in the post, with no return address on the envelope itself, then how are they expected to know who the sender was - in order to complain to them? "Windmill" wrote > Of course the recipient might *claim* to have > received a blank sheet of paper even if he had not. Of course. Just as the sender might *claim* to have sent a letter even if s/he had not! "Windmill" wrote > Which would then put the onus on the sender to get a > witness to his next letter's contents at the time of posting. But that still wouldn't prove that it was received - eg the envelope might get ripped while in transit, and some/all of the contents might fall out and never reach the recipient...
