how is a thank you letter perceived when it is sent cold after interview?

If you interview with someone and this person never gave you his/her email address, how is it perceived when you cold email a thank you? can it give off a negative vibe and wonder how I got their email? I also used this person's nickname (correctly) as I used linkedin to view this person up

does it matter or would it be better to request the email addresses in the future?
