RPost Now Offered as a Member Benefit by The Florida Bar for Email Proof with New Florida Email Service Rule


The Florida Bar adds RPost as a member benefit for its lawyer-members to send court documents attached to RPost Registered Email messages returning court-ready records of delivery proof

Los Angeles, California – December 6th, 2012 – RPost, the inventor of Registered Email® track, prove, sign and encrypt technology, announces The Florida Bar, one of the largest regulatory bodies for lawyers, now offers use of RPost’s Registered Email services for high value email and document delivery. The Florida Bar, a regulatory arm of the Supreme Court of Florida with 90,000 lawyer-members, has added RPost services as a new member benefit following the enactment of the new Florida Email Service Rule.

Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require service of court documents to opposing counsel by email and relies upon the sender to track and prove delivery of said emails, and any attachments, to the intended recipient. “Without court-admissible proof of delivery of email, the sending lawyer is leaving himself or herself exposed to recipient claims of non-receipt of documents. This can bring uncertainty to litigation deadlines,” notes RPost CEO Zafar Khan, referring to issues to be considered with regards to the new Florida Email Service Rule. “While the Supreme Court of Florida does not require the sending of documents by RPost’s Registered Email service, RPost recognizes that sending documents attached to RPost Registered Email messages provides irrefutable and court-admissible proof of time and content received in the form of an RPost Registered ReceiptTM email message – and as such, has added use of RPost delivery proof services as a best practice guideline.” Florida Bar members may now start sending Registered Email messages and receive a special member offer.

“We see RPost’s Registered Email services as a tool that can enhance the practice of law for our members and reduce cost for their clients,” states Randi Whitehead, Chair of The Florida Bar Member Benefits Committee. “For this reason, our Board has approved RPost services as a new member offering.” The Florida Bar now offers as a member benefit RPost Registered Email services for sending documents when you need verifiable and court-admissible proof of delivery, document content, and official time received.

RPost Registered Email services also include email encryption for compliant data privacy, simple to use legal electronic signature services, document metadata cleaning, and more. RPost services can be used from Outlook, Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, BlackBerry, and iPad or Android tablets.

I wouldn't want to use it unless it was open source.

i'd be interested in seeing how this works. as someone who administrates this type of stuff, you can't really prove anything other than that an email was downloaded from a pop/exchange server account to a mac address. you can't really prove the "person" "got it." all you can prove is that a device at a mac address "got it."

Kindly elaborate.

I provide notice of my address. Email is not included. Anyone wants to discuss things with me knows how to find me but if they don't dot the 'i' and cross the 't' to the letter then back she goes. I lose this ability to reject service by email. Therefore I would not accept registered email.

My service address does not include a zip code and is within one of the several states. The address establishes a plane that I can be found it and the laws that go along with that plane. Government does not want to talk to me in this particular plane. Instead they frequently choose to attempt to communicate with me in a plane they control (within the exterior boundaries of the state). The ethernet and email establishes yet another plane that government would really like to see extended worldwide. Why make it easy for them to do so?
