A point JT overlooks is the agent would be the delegate secretary and so your situation seems to be you are now writing to the delegate and not the elected secretary.
Didn’t overlook it , I just didn’t think it was hugely relevant. Having had to deal with Netstrata managers who assumed all the functions of the strata committee, to the point where they wouldn’t even give the elected secretary the strata roll on the grounds that the delegated secretary (i.e. them) already had it, I can see how a strata manager would feel the law was being observed if they dealt with the correspondence, as per Section 43. BTW, they cited BS privacy claims too – but that was before the Four Corners sky fell in on them.
But it is a point worth considering. The delegated roles of a strata manager purportedly exist to fulfil the functions of a strata committee or OC that they are not fulfilling themselves. An actionable problem would arise if the secretary refused to read or respond to communications and the committee instructed the strata manager to do likewise.
