Abstract

An alternative method, system and apparatus for addressing an e-mail message are provided. The alternative method, system and apparatus include using a physical location to address the e-mail message. The physical location may be a street address; however, whether a physical location or a street address is used. Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates are used to forward the message to its destination. The message may include a range outside of which it is not retrievable. The message may further include a maximum number of recipients that may retrieve it as well as a time span outside of which it is not retrievable.
