Step 1Greetings, earthling!

Greetings, earthling!
Start off with the appropriate greeting. This is usually "Dear", whoever. The tricky bit is usually what to call them. Usually, Mr. or Ms. works fine, but in special situations, "Sirs" (in the case of more than one man), "Madam", etc may be used. Use "to whom it may concern" ONLY as a last resort-it makes your letter sound like a form letter.

Also, type "RE:", then the subject.
