@AnneKatherine , I am sorry that happened to you, and it is worrisome. I agree with others who suggest snail mail. For any other students who see this thread, be careful to avoid this kind of situation. I understand that ad coms don’t like to see too many supplements. My daughter had three extra recs she wanted incorporated into her application. She didn’t want to submit a lot of supplemental stuff. Her guidance counselor took the most important points out of the extra recs and made them part of her letter. One rec was a commendation for her service project, another was from her violin teacher of 8 years, and the third was from a prof at a prestigious college with whom she did a summer course. Each had some importance, and hopefully the main points of those recs will be conveyed in her counselor’s letter.
I am sure everything will work out for you as it is supposed to. Try not to worry too much, as no doubt the teachers said good things about you. Best of luck.
