business letters should be folded from the bottom up first, so that when the first unfolding is done, you see who it's addressed to and their address. -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 8, 13:06 7

  - I like to put a little sliver fold on the bottom edge so the act of opening the folded letter flings white powder into the reader's face. -- nm - Max Nov 8, 13:10 2
