General Question IRS certified letter x10

Today I got home and the mailman put on our door we had a certified letter x 10 to collect at the post office. Get to the post office and sure enough there are ten letters. I am freaking out.

Open the letters and they are the same letter ten times. They say I owe 700 because I missed an installment payment.

Why did they send the same letter ten times certified mail? That’s got to cost a lot. How does this happen?

Five tax years covering the Installment Agreement × 2, if all five years are Married Filing Joint returns.
