The step by step method is only used to know how to write a simple
letter,
I won't use this to explain the option etc., what I want there are
examples
for predefined and user created element alternatives.

I will add a section for this but if a label is useful I want to add
it to the core.

I have to check if this can be done (in a good way) and if I like this
fallback method.

The alternatives a–e are not so easy to move to the place you prefer
because
the start of the bodytext depends on the position (I try to keep
always two lines
between them) but you can copy the layout of one element to another
one with
\copyletterlement[<element>][<new alternative>][<old alternative>]
which looks for you
\copyletterelement[reference][hraban][e]
You can now place the reference line with
\setupletterstyle
[reference]
[hoffset=...,
voffset=...]
and the width of the elements in the reference line with
\setupletter
[phone,street,...]
[width=20mm]

mtxrun --script fonts --list --pattern=... helps to find the right name.
BTW: You can another example for the use of the simplefonts module
in the source of the correspondence manual (correspondence-
environment.tex).
