You need a closing ("Sincerely,") and signature, and don't forget enough
topspace to accommodate a company logo/letterhead :-)
FWIW: Here is the basic structure of my setup (based on someone else's
work, I forget his name):
=================
\protect
%\setuppapersize[A4][A4]
\setuppapersize[letter][letter]
\setuplayout[header=.5in,
topspace=1.37in,
backspace=1.5in,
footer=0mm,
%header=0in,
%,width=middle,
width=middle,
lines=60,
height=middle] % margins etc.
\setupbodyfontenvironment[default][em=italic]
\setuppagenumbering[state=stop]
\long\def\addresser#1{\leavevmode\blank[1*line]
\lbox{#1}}
% Defines field for receiver's address and places it at right position.
\long\def\addressee#1{\rbox{#1}}
% Subject line, in bold face.
\long\def\lettersubject#1{\blank[2*line]{\BF %Re:
#1}}
\long\def\letteropening#1{\blank[line]#1} % opening...
\definestartstop
[letter]
[before={\blank[line]\setupwhitespace[medium]},
after={}]
\long\def\letterclosing#1#2{\vbox{\blank[line]#1\blank[3*line]#2}} % and
the closing formula
\unprotect
=================
Best wishes
