That's where I'm coming from exactly. Better not do any reprints at all
then. How can one know whether the written permission is authentic? Does one
call the photographer? What if *I* took the photos and want reprints? How
do I prove that I'm the photographer? Do I write myself a note?

No your are not. Since when is law enforcement your job?
What has happened is some jerkwater organization has sent around a threatening
