@Sunudhi.
The given answer is correct. The sequence is not about how we put it but it is about dependency. An empty envelope can be posted. But a letter without an envelope cannot be posted. That is why the envelope comes.
This is a fine line because you can take envelope first and letter second to put in it and vice versa. Hence we have to find a better and logical sequence, thus the dependency sequence. Hope this clears all doubts.

I think letter should come before envelope. Yes, it does mean that it is already written but we put the letter in an envelope.
Put the letter in an envelope -> post it in a post-box -> post offices clears the letter -> then delivery.
Put the letter in an envelope -> post it in a post-box -> post offices clears the letter -> then delivery.

Yes it is right.
We have to go in this way. First we have to take envelope after that keeping letter in it. Then we post it in post box, post box clears the letter, then delivery will be done.

Envelope doesn't mean just a cover!
It goes like this.
Take a Envelope write letter on the Envelope, put it in a PostBox, Post office clears the letter, then Delivery happens!

The letter means it's already written. So the sequence goes this way.
We take a envelop put Letter into it go to post office and after clearance, it is delivered.

Letter means you already written and if there was a paper in option then we take first paper, write on paper which becomes a letter then put it in an envelope.

Letter itself means it contain some message. So 1st take an envelope, put the letter into it. Then this envelop in post box.

But first we need to write the letter before putting it in envelop, right? Then how could envelop come before letter?

Without writing the letter how the envelop will come. So letter will come first then it sill put into envelop.
