There are several packages that perform this task. I like and highly recommend mailing package. You can find it on CTAN (finger ctan@ftp.dante.de for the closest mirror to you) in the directory macsros/latex/contrib/supported/mailing. If you want to print envelopes for your letters, take a look at my envlab package (supported/envlab).
