Hmm, that's interesting, since my wife is a lawyer. :) (Not that I've
asked her a lot about it, and she's in family law anyway.)

In the past, I've come up with several methods how to spoof the sealed
envelope routine, and I believe that this evidence would be thrown out
even before it made into the courtroom. In fact, most of the time I can't
read the date stamp on an envelope.

Now, if your attorney friend has jurisprudence of court cases where this
was indeed accepted as evidence, we can conclude that it'll work in the
US. For other countries, and even the US, there's no harm in using a
notary. If you can afford a court battle, surely you must be able to
afford a notary.
