If the recipient's MUA were so configured to ignore a return receipt - is there any other way to track the email to its destination - or at least into the organisation? Regards, Des Aubery... (www.adtherm.com - des@adtherm.com) On Monday 01 March 2004 00:38, Dylan wrote:

Hi John,
Perfect... thanks...
I now check the 'Confirm Delivery' & 'Confirm Delivery' options for an email. Then either way, I get a response as to whether the email was read (returns read receipt), or deleted without being read (returns simply delivery receipt). I tested this on a few emails to myself...
This is a neat trick to test whether the receiving party is receiving the emails, or not. Some folks never seem to receive your email...
:-(
Unless, of course, the recipient's MUA is configured to ignore such request. So, it's nowhere near reliable and many might consider it a security hole.
