Suitable pen-friend? (13)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

correspondent

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'suitable' is the first definition.
(corresponding or comparable)

'pen-friend?' is the second definition.
(someone you write letters to or correspond with)

(Other definitions for correspondent that I've seen before include "Pen-friend" , "Journalist; letter writer" , "Reporter on special subject or from overseas" , "Person sending letters or written reports - agreeing" , "Reporter on specialist areas" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
