But if it was sent registered they can at least know that you received it. And from what I gather, the consensus of most jurisprudence is that given you received it, throwing it away unopened is on you.



So if someone wants a “read receipt” they should pay, and the recipient should have the right to receive or not.

That should work to each party’s satisfaction.


registered return receipt signature required - maybe you can prove who received it.

Just sending something registered won't help your jurisprudence :p


In the US it does - if you send something registered mail, so long as it's delivered, it's on the recipient whether or not they read it

Likewise, if it's refused, it's on the recipient to be responsible for whatever they didn't accept
