Si buscas en Google verás que tanto en español como en inglés figura esta sigla, como comienzo de mensaje. Por lo tanto, o se traduce.
Definitivamente no se trata de una interjección ni exclamación, sino que identifica un mensaje "saliente" como desde un determinado punto, y siempre se da en los intercambios P2P, a veces como título de un mensaje y no como parte integrante del texto.

Thanks Richard. IMHO, it would be akin to attempt translating"http". Same case.

Sounds more like an email or web posting than an actual letter
