In the scenario I described you'll need to consult or maintain such a list anyway.

This'll differ by jurastiction, but in most of Europe you're allowed to deliver unrequested advertisements by post, but you're obligated to stop when asked.

Most people (even the uneducated, or otherwise considered dumb) can remember and sing along to the lyrics of hundreds of songs, and remember the location of hundreds or even thousands of items kept in their house.

So even if you're delivering to hundreds of addresses you'll quickly start to remember the exceptions, at least that was my experience.
