I write an email to each person who gets mail that day:

The latter is our approach - we do basic sorting but that's it.

Up until now, I had been writing on the letters that come in (like the person's business license) "Return to Sender" and just giving it back to the postal person.

However, a coworker says I should just put them in the circular file...I am thinking of that option. He says we are under no obligation to keep the mail, or send it back.

Our focus is on community workspaces. People who never show up aren't community members.

If they want a service like a virtual office - there's companies that do that. I don't think coworking should be confused with this service though.

now that's some savvy marketing right there :) There should of course be a special fee for people who do such a thing.

I don't think there should be legal issues if "virtual offices" are legal, certainly no problem in London.

A few web searches later and we discovered our address all over the interwebs and in business license filings that were not related to us. At first we got rather worked up about it. Our attorney, however, told us to not worry about it as there was no actual harm being done to our business. So, just the other day a few more people dropped in to see someone about an alarm system. Again, our attorney (who has a desk here) tells us that this is a problem for state/city government types that handle licensing and not us.
