Proving e-delivery of pre-and-post contract correspondence can often be as important in making a record of intent as a signed contract. Why?
A contract is designed to provide a record of intent between parties at the time of signing, for use in case of a later dispute or need to refresh recollection as to what was agreed. Regardless as to whether one e-signs, signs in person, or signs with pen-and-ink, the record of intent associated with a contract, should there be a later dispute or terms need to be interpreted, often relies on the pre-contract correspondence (including drafts and red-lines) and the post-contract notices (change requests, addendums, etc.). To record this pre-and-post contact correspondence, which today is always occurring via email, one should send by or attached to Registered Email messages; to protect their organization with irrefutable proof in terms of who said what when, who agreed to what when, and who notified whom and when.
