You're not getting a letter of recommendation. Confirm that the resignation was received and move on with your life.

8 weeks?
I wouldn't have even made a post here. Heck, I would've sent an email. Resignation via email is acceptable as far as I'm concerned. I really don't know the difference between that and a letter left on the desk.
It's 2010 - you can resign via email. It's still too early to resign via text message though.

I'd rather get it as an email, I'd actually read it. If someone puts a piece of paper on my desk, I'll likely move it aside to log onto my workstation and ignore it. Send me an email, and I'll get it day or night no matter where I am and will almost certainly read it.
I do 60-70%% of my work communication via email - I didn't even have a phone at my office for the first 8mos I worked at my current company. I eventually got one because one of the VP's who worked in california complained she could never get ahold of me on the phone -- because I had a # but no phone! ;D

Well, to close this thread appropriately, it's worth stating that I heard from my former employer via email this week. She did get the letter and was sorry to hear things were not going to work out, but wished me well and told me if I ever need a reference she will give me one
As stated earlier, even if it was to be a good one, on second thought I doubt I would use her as a reference, but anyway....I feel like there's no hard feelings between the two of us, which was my main concern. It was a very polite, professional response. Case closed, moving on.
