This method can work when, for example, we know that she knew some 
doctrine or some language while the author of the letter shows 
ignorance in these matters.

And as Carlos has assumed, some letters could be prepared by 
interpolation and omission using the original material as a source, 
what makes it very hard to ascertain genuineness of a letter.
