This should be "Self-addressed stamped envelope" (hyphenated), shouldn't it? Since self is modifying "addressed" and not "envelope"? — Knowledge Seeker দ (talk) 05:23, 31 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Indeed. "Self-addressed" = addressed to me. "Self addressed" = addressed by me. More or less. --TheParanoidOne 22:43, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I've always seen it spelled like this. humblefool® 23:41, 31 Jan 2005 (UTC)

I've moved it to the hyphenated version now. Thryduulf 23:18, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] international
