N.B. comes from the Latin "nota bene" meaning note well. It is used to emphasize an important point.
I wouls only use NB if the letter was not a formal one and if you wanted to perhapa use the NB at the end. Otherwise I wouls advise you to find a better word.

N.B. is an abbreviation for Latin nota bene, which means note well. Personally, I think it sounds overly proper nowadays.

NB is short for the latin expression "nota bene" which means literally "good word" or "good note". It's use in english means "Take Note!" or "Important Point".

it means 'note bien' directly translated from French to mean 'note good' or, in other words, pay attention because this part is important.
