E-mail is OK too as long as it is addressed to a specific individual, not a general e-mail address. If by mail, notice is deemed to occur on the date of receipt.

Kate and Mike,

My understanding has been that notice by mail, hand delivery, or fax is sufficient, and notice by email is not. Is this still the PNO view? I assume if by mail, notice is deemed to occur on receipt not on the date of mailing. Is that right? Thanks,
