I say that's not necessary and a waste of money. Just receiving mail - and we're jumping through all these hoops? (Unless I am missing something TH says he is just receiving some business mail at his residence. Now if he is getting shipments of widgets and letting everyone on TOTV come over and buy them, that's something different.)

Another issue that's been missed here - the sender is who controls where the mail goes. He pays the postage, can endorse it various ways, and can get it back if it isn't delivered. (I know, I know - if you are giving out your address for your business the logical thing for the mailer to do is mail it there.)

Where do you draw the line? Let's say you're a Doctor who lives in TV. Your phone rings and it's Charlie Crist asking about his sore throat. Sorry Charlie, call my office. The Doctor gets a magazine in the mail about medical procedures and tells his neighbor to come over and discuss a possible surgery. Send in the stormtroopers.
