Course-of-business evidence makes ordinary mailing practices relevant to determine whether a letter was dispatched or received.

Course-of-business evidence is relevant where the performance of a particular act is in issue. For correspondence, placement of a letter at the customary collection point, combined with the established practice of taking such letters to post, bears on dispatch. Due posting and absence of return through the Dead Letter Office also bear on whether the letter reached its addressee.
