The Mailing Address Line Rules combine data from various output attributes with optional text to produce a mailing address. If you do not specify the Mailing Address Line Rules in the Advanced tab, the default rules are used.
The Postal Matcher output attributes for the mailing address line 1 rule, line 2 rule, and line 3 rule, are pr_addr_mail, pr_addr_mail1, and pr_addr_mail2, respectively.

The pr_addr_mail can be written out in two separate lines, pr_addr_mail1 and pr_addr_mail2 for neatness purposes. However, unlike the addressing system of the United States, there are no explicit rules or regulations in the Korean addressing system to dictate how an address needs to be separated into multiple lines. The pr_addr_mail is split up in the following manner:
- pr_addr_mail1: [Level 1] [Level2] [Level3] [Block #] - [Sub-Block #]
- pr_addr_mail2: [Level4] [Apt. Bldg. #] - [House #] [Floor]
During the Postal Matcher processing, the pr_addr_mail attribute, pr_addr_mail1, and pr_addr_mail2 attributes are written out simultaneously and may be selected simply by specifying the desired attribute(s) in the output schema.
- Example 1a
-
Taking Example 1 above,
pr_addr_mail:서울 서초구 서초동 1359-45 서일빌딩 403
The split-up mail attributes will be as follows:
pr_addr_mail1:서울 서초구 서초동 1359-45
pr_addr_mail2: 서일빌딩 403
- Example 2a
-
Taking Example 2 above,
pr_addr_mail: 서울 용산구 이촌2동 현대한강아파트 7-1103
The split-up mail attributes will be as follows:
pr_addr_mail1: 서울 용산구 이촌2동
pr_addr_mail2: 현대한강아파트 7-1103
