A statutory demand does not require an expanded or technical meaning of "legal proceedings" to bar email service; where the affidavit of service proves the email address was appropriately used and the statutory demand was clearly sent in a way consistent with the objectives of service (s392(1)(f)), email service is effective and the creditor was entitled to a liquidation order for non-payment.
