Stupid question, but what do the arguments fill in the letter? 

\begin{letter}{Bob Dole \\ 123 main St \\ Russell, KS}

how would I fill that address using your example?

and how would i fill 

\opening{Dear Bob,}

Ah. I can't find any mention of labeling in the KOMA letter type.

\documentclass{letter}
\name{First Last} % your name
\address{1234 S main St \\ City, USA 00000 }
\signature{Signature}
\makelabels
\begin{document}
\newcommand\Letter[3]
  {\begin{letter}
   \opening{Dear ,}  % eg. Hello
TEXT
  \closing{Happy Holidays,} %eg. Regards
  \end{letter}%
}
\Letter{Field 1.1}{field 1.2}{Field 1.3}
\Letter{Field 2.1}{field 2.2}{Field 2.3}
\end{document}

incomplete \iffalse: all text ignored after line 14

I tried putting the \newcommand in the preamble with the same results.
