Christmas v. Fort McKay, discussed in this chapter (chapter 6), applied the instantaneous rule of communication to an email acceptance, based on the facts of the case. That is, the court concluded that an acceptance sent by email occurs where the communication is received. It did not discuss applying the postal rule - which would hold that acceptance occurs where the communication is sent. Do you agree that the instantaneous rule should apply to email acceptance? What arguments are there to apply the postal rule?"
