Dear Sir or Madam

Re your recent question about the spelling of re:- When 're' is used (when writing a letter) to mean 'regarding/concerning' or 'in the matter of', it is written as re .... or as Re.... (i.e. capitalized) if it is the first word of a heading or sentence.

As the word 're' is an abbreviation of a Latin expression, earlier examples show the two letters followed by a full stop (i.e. 'Re.' or 're.'), indicating that it is an abbreviation, but modern usage generally now omits the full stop.
