Begin with a capital D , capitalize the recipient's title and surname, and finish with a colon, although it is becoming more common nowadays to finish with a comma, even in business correspondence.

In the UK, a colon is rarely (in my experience, almost never) used. A comma is sometimes used, but most often all punctuation is omitted.
