ANYBODY ever gotten Parker Posey's auto through the mail?

Heh heh hello there, and thank you for your time. I'm a long-time fan of the Indie Film Queen herself, Parker Posey that recently came upon this wonderful site by accident. I've been a fan of Parker's for over nine years. She's more of an inspiration and muse to me than I can express without making this message overly long (not to mention she's, in my opinion, the sexiest lady in entertainment today:)).
Meaning what she does to me, naturally I've wanted her autograph. Parker's is the only celebrity autograph I desire, and it's something I'd cherish for the rest of my life.
But, getting it has been one of the most frustrating endeavors of my life. To make a very long story short, since 1999 I've sent out countless letters and at least five pictures for her to sign to various agencies, theaters, et cetera. And have come up empty handed. Endeavor Talent Agency, William Morris Agency, a theater in Boston where "Taller Than A Dwarf" played, one Off-Broadway in NYC where "Fifth of July" played, and other's I can't even remember. I've never been anything but decent in letters to her, and kept it G-rated. Never given a reason for her to turn me down.
Furthermore, as informed member of her online community of fans these nine years (and owner of her biggest Yahoo Group "The House of Parker"), I've never heard of her signing for any of her fans through the mail.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not painting her as primadonna who doesn't sign period. It's well established that she's quite nice and accomodating to people she meets in person, and signs pictures for them. For whatever the reason, the same is not the case with fans. I'd like to think that it's because of apathy on the part of agents/publicists (her now-former publicist Troy Nankin said he'd try to get her autograph for me, but it never happened for whatever reason), but I'm not sure.
That brings me to the reason for this post. You all here are far more knowledgable about the signing habits of celebrities, and some of you may have tried to get her signature in the past. So, has anybody gotten her to sign a picture for you through the mail, or has it been the same lessons in futility I've experienced? If she does sign, where have you had success? And if she doesn't sign through the mail, does anybody know why she won't, yet she'll sign for a stranger that may not even be a fan?
Finding this site has given me hope at least for getting some answers and closure out of this. I thought I'd gotten it in 2006 paying a middle man almost $200 to get her autograph for me, but that's a different story and it didn't work. I had given up, but I'm seriously thinking about trying again to make a dream of mine come true. Any answers anybody can give me, I am grateful for! Thank you again for your time.
I made another similar post at one of the other forums, "Has Anyone Had a Success Using This Address", which I'll link to if answering this is more appropriate there.
