Regarding "mail a copy to yourself" - I recently heard another friend
mention something of that sort regarding copyrighting photos taken and
posted on personal web sites.

What is it about the law that necessitates mailing a copy of something
to yourself?  How does that work?  What is it about mailing one to
yourself that legitimizes it?
