So it's a matter of you telling them why their mail does not get
through. "Their mailer is broken, fax them instead and tell them their
mailer is broken." I cannot get messages out if the other side is not
listening. The other way round, if an envelope of a letter is muddy
beyond recognition, should a post office assistant (whatever his
profession is actually called, I'm not a native speaker) NOT reject your
registered letter?

Strange world, still.
