The Mailbox Rule, a cornerstone of contract and commercial law, establishes that legal acceptance or notice is effective once properly mailed—even if the recipient refuses or never opens it. Rooted in the 1818 case Adams v. Lindsell, this rule ensures that performance and tender are recognized by law upon dispatch, not delivery. In modern equity and UCC-based actions, it supports lawful discharge, commercial default, and administrative enforcement through certified mail. Refusal or silence constitutes dishonor and triggers legal consequences. This principle empowers private creditors, trust executors, and commercial actors to enforce rights and settle obligations without obstruction.
