A lot of people said Verin was stupid to only mention the shadowspawn attack on Caemlyn in a letter that Mat never opened but I think it makes perfect sense.
The problem isn't that.
The problem is that she told him that "if he opened it, he *had* to do what it said", while there was really no gain in doing that, only much more risk that he wouldn't open it.
She could simply tell him to open, without adding an idiotic requirement such as that one.

I'm pretty sure her obligation not to betray the Shadow had the most to do with it. *NM*

It changes it by ensuring he doesn't open the letter before she returns

She could NOT have told him he could open it freely, that would be too close to breaking her Oath
