I looked up "Take care" and found "Cuidate." Is that a good one to use? - bchristo, Oct 28, 2010
Yes, if you are speaking informally and it has an accent mark "cuídate" - 0074b507, Oct 28, 2010

It may say something about the Spanish culture, there seem to be more ways to greet someone or wish them well than there are to say good bye.

The usual respectful sign-off is simply "Atentamente." There are formulae for ending a letter, often long and ornate, even flowery. But "Atentamente" will serve you well in any context that's at least a little formal. "Abrazos," to a good friend of either sex is appropriate.
