One can of worms you may want to open is the one letter, the Lusk letter, which is still considered to be possibly written by the murderer. The sides are pretty evenly split and the debate rages on. Start a good arguement on the net!

At this late date it would be impossible to determine if ANY of the letters atributed to the ripper are real. However if I had to pick the most likely to be genuine, it would be the "From Hell" letter.
