Help with a short letter!
Is there anyone that could take a look at this short letter for me? I have tried to write it by myself but I am not sure if it is well written. Thanks in advance!

The letter is basically fine, Raymonde. It is a little over-formal, actually, to the extent that it has no humanity, so I have suggested a couple of personal pronouns below, a tense change, and changes in or the loss of a few words. Also, two spaces after a period is recommended: We were extremely pleased to receive your letter advising us that you would consider resubmission of our manuscript once the areas of concern highlighted by the reviewers had been satisfactorily addressed and the recommended corrections had been provided.
