a letter from whom to whom? a company that places faith in a letter they ask you to write yourself is just poor in my eyes.
me: i need to do so-and-so. them: and how do we know you're qualified to do that? me: i have a letter that i wrote to myself that says i am. them: oh, very well.
sounds...flimsy.
yes/no.
this is standard practice for the domain registrars, and other elements of business.
i'm often required to send a letter on "letterhead".
i don't have letterhead, let alone an identifying logo for any of my companies.
so, i just put the company name in big letters at the top of the letter, date it, sign it.
