Hi LyX experts,

I've tried a couple of attempts to use the letter document class
with "mixed" results. It seems the "My Address" and "Send To Address"
refuse to show up in the dvi output, as does the "signature."  All
"Standard" paragraphs show up, as does the "closing" and a page
number at the bottom.

Looking at the LaTeX output, I see:

\documentclass[12pt,american]{letter}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{geometry}
\geometry{verbose,tmargin=0.25in,bmargin=0.625in}
\usepackage{babel}
\makeatletter
\makeatother

\begin{document}, then the 
\address{with my address in it}, then a 
\letter{with the send-to address in it} and then
 the standard paragraphs I wrote with no curly brackets anywhere,
 followed by the
\closing{blah, blah} then the
\signature{my name} and finally
\end{document}

Is there a package I need to specify in the preamble?  Or is there
a delicate order I need to enter these things into LyX?  I know
I can probably get what I need ultimately by simply using "Article"
class, but I'd like to understand what's going on here, and to
actually use "letter" class for letters, if possible.

I'm using LyX version 1.0.1.

TIA

Jim
