care of Mr. Jones= prin bunavointa domnului Jones, la domnul Jones

Cred ca este mai nimerita aceasta traducere, intrucat ea este intalnita foarte des in corespondenta comerciala/ de afaceri si nu se refera neaparat la bunavointa/amabilitate.

"care of" or shorter C/O means that a person or a company can be found at a certain postal address, which is not the main (permanent) one of that person or company. This is different from “attention of” in which case it might end-up in wrong hands!
