CV's emailed to general addresses receive much the same treatment simply due to volumes. Most companies that are accepting general applications will have a specific address on their site to email to and specific postings will of course have submission instructions. Overall I think that handing a CV to the appropriate person in the company is still the best since it lets you make a personal impression, but unless you can get face time with that person you're probably better served via email than dropping it off with the receptionist.
