A method and system for recording, verifying, tracing and authenticating electronic transmittals between senders and recipients. The method comprising the steps where a service provider receives a first electronic transmittal from a sender, stores an electronic code, generates a reference code which uniquely identifies the first transmittal, extracts a recipient electronic address, and forwards the transmittal to a recipient designated by the sender. the system comprises first-and second computer processing means (100, 200), each capable of generating, storing, sending, receiving, and processing electronic data transmittals; third party computer processing means (300) comprising means for extracting from a sender's first electronic data transmittal, the electronic address of the recipient, as designated by the sender; a third party client application (400); a third party data administration means (500); and a third party database (600).
