bboyminn:

Sorry you feel that way, but this is only a plot hole
because you choose not to believe it. That FACT IS,
the letter was there. Now you can chose to believe
it couldn't be there, even though it was, or you can
choose to believe it /was/ there and accept 
explanations as to why. 

This isn't a problem with the story, this is a problem
with what /you/ choose to believe or not believe.

In my book (a pun), choosing to believe what is
written on the page always seem to make more sense.

The letter is an extremely minor part of the overall
story. JKR simply can't waste precious pages explaining
every little minor point. The Letter was there, now on
with the story.

And I am out of here.
