Russian letter writing

[kasak.livejournal.com]

A quick question:

I understand that in Russian, use of someone's first name followed by the patronymic is often used in the way Mr./Mrs./Miss/Ms. is used followed by the last name in English. What happens, however, when the patronymic of the person to whom one is writing is unknown?

Уважаемая Госпожа Т?

That doesn't quite sound right... Help?

>If so, my words about "new area" are not so senseless, even speaking about the traditional mass media :)

Well, people who used to work to media have not disappeared, they have just changed their jobs.

>I doubt they used to accept such calling from young or outside people

In fact, they encouraged us to do so.
