Details:

Using groff version 1.23.0.rc1.235-633d.

Sample file:

.LT SP
.WA "John Doe"
Nowhere,
USA.
.WE
.IA "Jane Smith"
Somewhere,
UK.
.IE
.LO SJ "Letter of Introduction"
.LO SA "Dear Ms Smith"
.P
This is the text of the letter.
.FC "Yours sincerely"
.SG

Process with groff -mm -Tpdf

You'll find that: The subject line shows only the first word; the formal
closing is omitted completely; and the writer's name at the bottom is followed
by a trailing comma.

If you change the first line to
.LT BL

or one of the other letter types, everything is printed correctly.
