what's the best way to reach an inmate? online letter, snail mail letter or phone call?

The online letter is the most reliable.

The online letter is the most reliable. Inmates have to call you, you cannot call in and ask to speak to them. Therefore, the letter can initiate contact but then the inmate would have to call you.
