Silly phone didn't reply to all. In the US they are 2 different things. Many businesses have a box at the post office for letter and bills and a physical address should you want to ship a package back to them.

Confronted by these generates a lot of confusion in new users (A postal address is a physical address? When do we use one and not the other?) They are also stored differently in the table but presented similarly to the user in edit operations. I'm not clear what functional difference these addresses should have, but I'd like to switch to less misleading labels. Even 'address' and 'alternative address' would be an improvement. Looking to see if their any insights, opinions etc from anyone using (or looking to use) acquisitions.
