diligence be served, the corporation may be served by registered or certified mail, return
receipt requested, addressed to the secretary of the corporation at its principal office. Service
is perfected under this Subsection at the earliest of the following:
(1) The date the corporation receives the mail.
(2) The date shown on the return receipt, if signed on behalf of the corporation.
(3) Five days after its deposit in the United States mail, as evidenced by the
postmark, if mailed postpaid and correctly addressed.

of serving a corporation.
