I worked as a postman in Vienna for some months and I can confiirm that businesses as well as private residents get mail with different addresses. In that context I should add that some businesses get mail to PO boxes which do not relate to a street or housenumber. Therefore, my original proposal incorporated an addr:pob=* key as well. I left that out in the new proposal to decrease complexity, as people vote against everything they do not fully understand. -- Friedrich K.
