you could also send it express mail, that way someone has to sign for it.. that will cost more but at least you know they didnt throw it out,.
it sounds like you are writing to someone famous..
then you could also send it via Fedex as well,

a.)Unless the letter has many pages, more than 3 or 4, it should only take one stamp. The Post Office will weigh it and tell you exactly how much postage is needed. b.) Mail should arrive in 3-5 days from anywhere in the US, but there is no guarantee. c.) The return trip is the same. d.) Yes I would put a personal note on the outside, especially if you think they will not recognize your name in the return address.

You should quit wasting people's time. We don't know what country or state or wherever you're from to be able to estimate how much it might cost, because it's different for every country, and it also depends on how much the item weighs exactly, which you either know, or you have to go to the post office anyway in order to have them weigh it and get the correct postage put on in person, by hand. Bleh!
