provides that, unless evidence sufficient to raise a doubt is adduced, a range of presumptions apply to records of electronic communications. The presumptions relate to the mode of communication, the sender, the time and place of sending and receipt. Electronic communication is a defined term and embraces all modern electronic technologies, including telecommunications, as well as the facsimile and telex methods of communication. The presumptions do not apply in a proceeding between all parties to a contract in relation to the contract if the presumption is inconsistent with a term of that contract.
