What is a punctuation mark placed after a greeting?

Answer 1

In business letters, you should use a colon (:) if you use any punctuation. The new way is to have no punctuation after the greeting in business letters. But if you omit punctuation there, you also have to omit the comma after the closing.

In personal letters, people use a comma after the greeting.

Answer 2

In a simple letter, a comma comes after a greeting, such as "Dear Auntie,".

An exclamation point might be used, such as: "Good to see you!"

In a business letter salutation, a colon might be used: "Dear Sir or Madam:"
