Recommendation Letter?

<p>Hi, apparently, the person assigned to my history/social science recommender had problems logging into the Common App. He said that he tried three times, and they restricted access to him. As you all are aware of, the Common App has a section where recommenders upload their recommendation letters for their respective applicant. </p>

<p>But, in this case, can the recommender send an email with the recommendation letter to me so that I can print it out to send it off to colleges, or does the recommender have to send them himself?</p>
