correspondence
When referring to letters and emails, "correspondence" is usually an uncountable noun. You do not say "correspondences" even if you have many letters. In formal business settings, it is often used as a general term to cover all types of written communication, including memos and official notices. When describing a similarity between two things, the word is often paired with the preposition "between" or "with" (e.g., "a correspondence between X and Y").
