The rule of revocation is that the communication of the revocation of the offer should reach to the offeree before his initiation of the communication of acceptance. Once the offeree has communicated his offer or initiated his communication to the offer, the offerer is bound by his proposal.

Example: If B makes a proposal to A on 2.1.2011. A sends his acceptance on 4.1.2011 by post. The letter may not reach B on 4.1.2011 itself. But if B wants to revoke his proposal on or after 4.1.2011, it is voidable upon A's discretion. A can make B bound by his proposal.

Revocation on the part of the acceptor is possible if he can communicate the revocation of his acceptance before the acceptance is communicated to the offerer. Once the communication of the acceptance is complete, then the acceptor is bound by his acceptance.

Example: If B makes a proposal to A on 2.1.2011 and A sends his acceptance on 4.1.2011 via post. If B communicates to A, through speedier means (eg telephone), then his acceptance would be considered to be revoked.

The answer is according to the Indian Contracts Act, 1972.

Does American legal system accepts the postal rule?

If you are talking about the Mailbox Rule, then yes. Acceptance of an offer is binding upon the moment it is properly mailed, while an Offer, a Revocation, or a Rejection are binding upon receipt. An acceptance does not have to actually be received by the offeror for it to be effective, as long as it was properly mailed. This rule only applies when using the mail, as in the post office.
