Well, here in the UK the norm (for non-commercial mail) is not to include a return address on the outside of the envelope.
To return something to the sender, they have to open it and hope they find an address inside. Much easier to just deliver it!

- tokamak-teapot 4y agoYes, I always put my address on the back of parcels (who sends letters?). I also always use the short form: house number and post code. Is this a good method? No idea. Decades of sending parcels. None failed to arrive, so no attempts to return to sender.
