Use Case
Send Physical Mail Without Knowing the Recipient's Name
Send physical mail even when you do not know the recipient's personal name. Address letters to Homeowner, Resident, Manager, Owner, or other titles to reach the intended person.
MappyMail can be used even if you do not know the recipient's personal name. You can address the letter using a general designation or title so the letter arrives and is routed to the intended recipient.
This capability is often just as important as not knowing the address. Many MappyMail users send letters to a home, apartment, highrise, or business without knowing the recipient's name and simply address the letter to "Homeowner," "Resident," "Manager," or "Owner."
MappyMail is designed for the real world, where you often do not know the recipient's name. Whether you are contacting a neighbor, reaching out to a property owner, or sending a business communication, MappyMail makes it easy to send a physical letter when you are missing the recipient's name.
Common Titles for Residential Mail

- Homeowner—for single-family homes and condos
- Resident—for any occupied dwelling
- Neighbor—for nearby homes
- Property Owner—for investment or rental properties
- Landlord—for rental property owners
- Tenant—for renters
Common Titles for Business Mail
When sending to businesses, offices, or commercial properties, you can address your letter to:
- Business Owner or Owner
- Manager or General Manager
- Property Manager
- Operations Manager
- Office Manager
- Building Management
- President, CEO, or Founder
- Director

Why Title-Based Addressing Works
Title-based addressing is a standard practice in postal mail. When a letter arrives addressed to "Homeowner" or "Manager," it is typically opened by the person who fits that role at the address.
This approach is especially useful for business outreach, property inquiries, neighbor communications, and any situation where you know the location but not the individual's name.
Combining Map Selection with Title-Based Addressing
MappyMail's two key features work together: you can select a location on the map when you do not know the address, and you can use title-based addressing when you do not know the name. This means you can send a physical letter even when you are missing both pieces of information.
For example, you could click on a neighbor's house on the map and address the letter to "Resident" or "Homeowner"—no need to know their address or name.
Common questions
Can I send a letter if I do not know the recipient's name?

Common titles include Homeowner, Resident, Neighbor, Property Owner, Landlord, Tenant, Business Owner, Manager, Director, and department names like HR Department or Accounts Payable.
