摘要:
The present invention relates to a linkage system and a linkage method that links an e-mail address with a postal address. The present invention relates to a system and a method that delivers a postal item to a real address of a customer corresponding to an e-mail address, even though the e-mail address is entered in the postal item. According to the present invention, since the e-mail address and the postal address are linked with each other, even if the user's residence is changed, the changed address can be confirmed by using the e-mail address that is linked with the postal address. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the loss of the postal item. In addition, since a semi-permanent e-mail address is used instead of the postal address, which often changes, in a communication way between individuals, a sender can send the postal item by using only the e-mail address without worrying about the address change of recipient, even when not knowing the address of the recipient.
