Perfectly genuine. They started doing it a while ago, and I've had
letters for a few of my domains. It's no greate hassle, and you can see
you're on the genuine Nominet site anyway.
You only have to update the basic details, and it does make sure that
you are the right person. More worrying if you don't eventually get one!
It takes about five minutes to do it all, and you get to download a nice
colour copy of your certificate. Don't ignore it (even if some people
do); apart from anything else it's probably a safeguard against slipups
by whoever actually did your registration (usually your ISP).
