It ought to be indicated that the Centre could not send a written notice to the Respondent&acute;s address of seat because the address was insufficient and non-existent.

Yet, the e-mail notice sent to &lt;postmaster@saint-gobein.com&gt; and to &lt;postmaster@saintgoban.com&gt; was returned back undelivered as the e-mail address had permanent fatal errors.

Furthermore the &nbsp;registration e-mail addresses &lt;saintgoban@hotmail.com&gt; and to &lt;saintgobein@outlook.com&gt; indicated on the Whois (and confirmed by the Registrar) were used, but the Center never received any proof of delivery or notification of undelivery.<\/p>",
