Thanks, Wolfgang, got that working now. But I'd like to change the formatting of the list further from

encl:
 * One
 * Two
 * Three

to

encl: One
      Two
      Three

without symbols. So I tried:

 \setupletterdescription [enclosure] [symbol=bullet]

This did not work so I tried:

 \definesymbol[nosymbol][{}]
 \setupletterdescription [enclosure] [symbol=nosymbol]

But that results in:

encl:<too much space> One
     <too much space> Two
     <too much space> Three

I cannot remove the extra space with:

 \setupletterdescription [enclosure] [symbol=nosymbol,distance=0em]

Note, that this works:

\setupitemize[each][fit][distance=0em]
\startitemize
  \item no extra space before bullet
\stopitemize

--> *no extra space before bullet

However, it does not work with an enumeration once the symbol was removed:

\setupitemize[each][fit][symbol={},distance=0em]
\startitemize
  \item item
\stopitemize

--> <too much space> item
