Every state has by now adopted law to the effect that emails and faxes are admissible same as written and signed docs.
So if you have a string of emails sent, acknowledged, answered then it might be that he acknowledged receipt of your deed and thereby acknowledged delivery of the deed.
Since I learned of this Uniform Law some years back I've made a spot of money here and there by doing my communicating on agreed deals by email, with copies to myself and thereby built my file of signed "written" docs.
Funny how often the other guy just has a hard time remembering what he agreed to pay or share with us, etc. but once confronted with the email evidence that's seemed to settle things considerably.
