Yes, I think under normal circompstances it would help to send a letter
of recommendation. In the actual situation, however, I think it would be
just lost since the process is stalled anyway.

The AM should always try to get several different opinions about
an applicant, for instance I think it is a good idea for an AM
to actively contact people who have in the past collaborated with
the candidate. This is at least what I ususlly do as an AM.
