I start a formal letter like this:
Dear Sir/Madam, ...
May I again address the person I am writing to somewhere in the body of the letter?
I see many people addressing the recipient more than once in a letter.
Is it valid?

4I'm not sure in what context you'd need that - usually, sure, you can - by using 'you'. – SF. Mar 16 at 8:37

Sales agents tend to use this incredibly creepy pattern where they keep repeatedly addressing you by your name; it's a thing they are trained to do. I find it incredibly creepy, and it's a quick way to loose my trust and interest in anything they are pushing. Have you seen it in this kind of a pattern? Or did you mean something else? – Levente Apr 27 at 3:44

I will explain this by typing out an example email:
Dear, user100323
I am emailing you regarding an account transfer from my account to account number XXXX. "So user100323", Can you help me out?
Thanks,
Joseph Casey
That you can do.
