: QUESTION: Is it true that a way to copywrite something is to mail it in a sealed envelope back to yourself at your home address leaving the envelope sealed or not opened. If this is true what other information should be added to the item to be copywritten to ensure that this document is legally binding. Pleas email me at zibaline2001@aol.com with the response your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Dear Zibaline,
It is not true and what you propose probably won't even work in court, to prove authorship. The copyright law protects what you create. Registration enables inforcement.

Copyrights don't protect ideas, only a mode of expression.
