We’d like to remind Forumites to please avoid political debate on the Forum.
This is to keep it a safe and useful space for MoneySaving discussions. Threads that are – or become – political in nature may be removed in line with the Forum’s rules. Thank you for your understanding.
PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING:
Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour.
Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

Perhaps, it depends if the contract's definition of "written" includes communications other than by post.
It also depends on if the recipient has disabled the delivery notification in the options, or chooses not to send the notification at the prompt box.
In other words, it can't be relied on, whereas post is guaranteed.
Unless you lose the proof of postage of course

Post 3, and post 11.
You still have not said what is the address provided, usually on your tenancy agreement, "for the serving of notices"?
99 times out of 100 this is a postal address. It may be the LL's home, it may be c/o the agent (or even his mum), but the law requires the LL to give you such an address for exactly these circumstances - formal notices and communications.
If the address provided is an email address, fine.
