Reading further down in Snopes, Hill writes this response to the query. Notice the response from Boxer's office (emphasis added):

With respect to the letter to Senator Barbara Boxer, I am in fact the author of it.

The only thing I received [from Senator Boxer's office in response to my correspondence] was a "form letter," or at least it seemed to be, that stated that since it was determined that I was not a constituent of the Senator's, that the letter would not be shown to her. I felt that to be a little bit blunt, but not all together out of place. I thought no more of it until about two weeks later when I received an email from a friend and fellow airline pilot asking me if I had indeed written the original letter. He attached the email which he had received that contained my letter.

I have received hundreds of letters addressed per the copy of the letter circulating over the internet. It would seem that someone within the Senator's office either forwarded a copy of the typed letter to a friend, or posted it on the internet. The letters that I have received have come from all over the country, and from persons from all walks of life. I have only received one negative letter to date.
