That's why I often wish laws, contracts, etc could contain sections written in plain/common language explaining the intention/spirit of the document. Of course it would never work but I can dream.

I can send you a letter and write anyone's name and address in the upper left corner of the envelope (From field). The only legitimate marking on an envelope is the post mark and with email it is most of the IP addresses in the headers.
