Don't concentrate extra hard on being stylish or being extra - right.
Hello XYZ is also OK.
All this matters only for freshers mostly.
For experience people you will be recruited on basis of: - If manager finds something common with you like language, place etc. - Manager thinks you will behave like proper slave.
"BCC should be used when you don't want the other recipients to know that you have sent that mail to others."
fine. but be careful. better forward rather than BCC. because you made BCC to some for the very reason that you want the BCC parts to know and the other parts to not know of your "mischief" that you have made some know.. so now if one in BCC does "reply to all" by error, all will wonder of your mischief and wait for your day to come...

To my mind all business communications should start with "Dear Sir" or "Dear Madame" (If you know its a lady).

When Mr. is used it is better to use the last name. THough using the first name is not incorrect either. It is just that in the western world they prefer Mr. with last name.

Dear Mr David is perfectly ok sir, in fact i think people prefer to be addressed by the first name rather than the surname

The best is to Use "Dear" with First name (somewhat personal) and "Mr." with Sir Name or Last Name. Using "Mr." and "Dear" at the same time is not appropriate.
