Ballots are NOT addressed to "resident." They are sent and addressed only to the registered voter. Regoistered voters have to sign the ballot and the signature is compared to their voter registration signature before the ballot is opened. I am not sure about all states but in most states, each ballot has a bar code that identifies the registered voter it is from.
Absentee voting and mail-in voting are handled the same way.
