: Doesn't it just mean "letter served"? You seem very confident - do you have any references?

letter delivered
In that case I believe they just mean "delivered" here.

letter sent
It just means "sent". However, by using the more formal sounding "notified", they kind of make it sound more official and imposing.
It is also sometimes used to mean "published" for example, when they send out notice of seizure of your bank account for unpaid fines, even though you don't receive it, it is published in the State Gazette (BOE), and even though you are unaware of the payment due, you are deemed to have been "notified" simply because notification was sent out and then published in the BOE, whether you have seen said notification or not.

I'm not posting any references, because the anecdote above is from personal experience. Tráfico used to keep sending out letters to an address I used to live in twenty years ago, even though I had repeatedly informed them of my changes of address. I still find out nowadays that some of my information on officialdom's computers is way out of date.

The fact that the original text says "carta notificada y recibida" suggest that it probably does refer to registered mail, as the senders apparently have proof that it was received by the addressee. However, in Spain, a registered letter is usually a "carta certificada"...

Correos (España) dixit:
"La carta certificada te permite realizar envíos nacionales o internacionales de hasta 2 kilos de peso que circulan con carácter registrado y se entregan bajo firma del destinatario o de la persona autorizada. Pueden llevar carácter de urgente."

NB: As phil notes abve, it is probably just an attempt to express the notion of "served":
Serve = Deliver (a document such as a summons or writ) in a formal manner to the person to whom it is addressed...‘the court then issues the summons and serves it on your debtor’
More example sentences
3.1 Deliver a document to (the addressee) in a formal manner.
‘they were just about to serve him with a writ’

philgoddard
: Strictly speaking this is redundant because the letter couldn't be received without being sent, but I believe this is the meaning.
