Abstract
A system and methodology is presented for definitive routing of letters, packages and other physical deliveries to a user's preferred address by reference to personal universal address. The object of the invention is to allow recipients to centrally control and confirm the desired receiving address for various types of deliveries, by creating a user-managed database linking physical addresses to secure personal communications addresses, such as cell phone numbers and electronic mail addresses.
