I very often start business letters with the word Greetings: which provides a sort of business formality, looks a lot like the "Gentlemen:" which the old-fashioned textbooks recommend, and has no sex implication built into it. I suppose it might remind some people of a draft notice, but that's the only drawback I can think of.
