It depends what type of person your character is. A fairly direct person might just walk up to someone important looking (who might know about these things) and ask. Someone else might try to track down a functioning mail delivery business and become an apprentice or pose as a courier and hope that they can persuade customers to give them sealed letters.
Whatever suits you, there are lots of ways to ask!

Simply using the seal envelope button on an enevelope is, in fact, secure.
Those with more experience may point out that this is nonsense, and that it is possible, even easy, to spoof this (I won't say how, but it's true to the best of my knowledge).
However, the ability to sign envelopes with names other than your own has been declared a bug exploit. So it shouldn't happen, and I was informed at the time that your characters are required to believe that it is in fact a secure system (or attribute any spoofing to supernatural means, or something).
I personally don't know what an actual seal tool does, so I can't tell how much it helps.

I was not actually referring to sealing envelopes, which is indeed not that secure (although yes, abusing it could be construed as a CR breach). I replaced the mechanism though, for which you need the seal or stamp or whatever it's called that you can manufacture, and that method is, for as far as I know, secure.
