Well, if you notice in Hindi spoken, we have words to show respect to people of all age..eg--aap kaise hain, notice the word' aap ' . in english spoken, we do not have any word specifically to differentiate respect for people of different age. so it is valid to use Mr, Mrs, Miss and Ms.

Possibly yes. Leaving the salutation is another option; it is in vogue today.
