Can you send mail to yourself
A clever question!
In general, it is not possible to send mail to yourself in the classical sense. When you send a letter or package to yourself, it's essentially a circular transaction where you're sending something to your own address, which is already known to you. This doesn't really serve a purpose, as you already have access to the contents of the mail.
However, there are a few scenarios where sending mail to yourself might make sense:
- Testing purposes: You might send a test letter or package to yourself to ensure that your mailing address is correct, or to test the delivery process.
- Proof of delivery: In some cases, you might need to prove that you've received a document or package, and sending it to yourself with a return receipt or signature confirmation can serve as proof.
- Business or professional purposes: In a business or professional setting, you might need to send a document or package to yourself as a way to keep a record of a transaction or to demonstrate that you've received something.
In these cases, you can send mail to yourself, but it's essential to keep in mind that it's not a conventional or efficient way to communicate.
It's also worth noting that some online services, like digital mailboxes or virtual post offices, allow you to send digital mail to yourself, which can be useful for storing and organizing digital documents or receipts.
