:::{{reply to|Grlucas}} Unfortuantely, with the formatting from the sandbox example, the  addresses spill out of the box and the signature wraps around to the next line.

I was also thinking that instead of introducing the letters, we put the introductory comments in footnotes. The intros made sense in a book format, but footnotes might make more sense here. What say you? —[[User:Grlucas|Grlucas]] ([[User talk:Grlucas|talk]]) 00:36, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
