Sent email delivery confirmation

How do I set up delivery confirmation on Mac using Mail? When sending an email I want to be able to know if a person opens the mail.

Do a google search for "read receipt mac mail"
You should also note that the practice is generally frowned upon, and is dependent on whether or not the recipient wants to send the reply or not.

I have a sent email (I confirmed it was sent) and it keeps coming back to my Draft folder. How can I make it stop?

I have a sent email (I confirmed it was sent) and it keeps coming back to my Draft folder, even when I delete it. How can I make it stop? I use OS X, version 10.0.4 and the Mail application.

How can I get an email delivery confirmation?

Is it possible to set up Mail so that I can check to see if an email has reached its destination and even better, if it has been read? Are there any 3rd party add-ons that can help with this? I believe it's possible with Outlook.

I am not saying "you shouldn't want it," just that you should not rely on it. Consider: if you don't get delivery confirmation, you have no way of knowing if that is because it wasn't delivered or because the recipient did not opt in. And even if you do get confirmation you have no way of knowing if the message actually was read by anybody, since a lot of email client apps including Apple's Mail.app have scripting & other provisions to automatically handle email in a variety of ways without human intervention.
But regardless of that, if this is something you want to see in Mail.app, send Apple feedback about it. This site is for user-to-user support. You are not talking to Apple here, just to other users like yourself. We are no more able to implement that feature than you are, so all we can do here is offer suggestions for workarounds or alternative ways to accomplish more or less the same thing.

Email delivery confirmation

Hi,
I want to send an email with the help of the utl_smtp package. So I write a store procedure to send email and it works. Additional to every send I want a delivery confirmation to the sender adress, because it is very important to see, which mails weren't delivered. I've searched for a parameter, that I could set and found these syntaxes in the "PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference".
UTL_SMTP.MAIL (
c IN OUT NOCOPY connection,
sender IN VARCHAR2,
parameters IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL);
UTL_SMTP.RCPT (
c IN OUT NOCOPY connection,
recipient IN VARCHAR2,
parameters IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL)
RETURN reply;
UTL_SMTP.RCPT (
c IN OUT NOCOPY connection,
recipient IN VARCHAR2,
parameters IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL);
The following statement stay in the Reference for the description of "parameters":
parameters The additional parameters to RCPT command as defined in Section 6 of [RFC1869]. It should follow the format of "XXX=XXX (XXX=XXX ....)".
I read a little bit about SMTP in RFC1869 and I changed the statements:
utl_smtp.mail(mail_conn,sender);
utl_smtp.rcpt(mail_conn,recipient);
to:
utl_smtp.mail(mail_conn,sender, 'NOTIFY="SUCCESS,FAILURE"');
utl_smtp.rcpt(mail_conn,recipient, 'NOTIFY="SUCCESS,FAILURE"');
I get now the following syntax error: "ORA-29279: SMTP permanent error: 501 Syntax Error"
I tried also the statement without success:
utl_smtp.mail(mail_conn,sender, 'NOTIFY=SUCCESS,FAILURE');
utl_smtp.rcpt(mail_conn,recipient, 'NOTIFY=SUCCESS,FAILURE');
What can I do to get this delivery confirmation. E.g. in Outlook is possible to set this as option for emails before you send it. Any ideeas?
Thanks!

No fenton, does not exist. However, you can set up a Rule to trigger a reply to anyone who sends you mail.
But beware that this will validate your email address for every spam mail that you recieve and may loop endlessly if someone on the other end does the same, or has an out-of-office reply set up (unless their server is prepared to stop such a loop).
If you really need legal mail receipt certification, use special services such as

Delivery confirmation in sent mail

I saw in SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 FM that there are parameters to get delivery confirmation and read receipts.
Following are the parameters:
NOTIF_DEL
NOTIF_READ
NOTIF_NDEL
I am using BCS interface. How and what do I set to get a delivery confirmation of the emails sent out?
Is that really possible? I think we need to some settings in SCOT also for that (where we set that SAPConnect expects receipt confirmation for internet mail).
Thanks in adv.

Hi.
In outlook try these settings :
1.From the Oulook Tools menu, select Options (if you don't see the Options menu item, you may ahve to expand the menu window with that little double arrow that points downward).
2. In the next screen for Options, click on the Email Options button
3.In the next screen Email Options, click on the Tracking Options button.
4. In the Tracking Options screen, you have a checkmark for Delivery receipt. Click this and all your emails you send out will give you an alert when your email server delivers them.
Moreover check in SOST, the traffic signal should be green indicating the mail was send successfully to outlook.
Thanks

Internal email delivery taking very long time (EMAIL WITH attachment sent to large distribution group)

Hi Fellows
I am facing an issue with Exchange 2010 SP3 (14.03.0123.003) environment. Internal email sent with attachment to an all employee or large-member distribution group chokes the queue on Hub Transport and takes from 7 to 15 minutes to deliver. during this
time period users's emails are also delayed because of transport queue. I am trying to diagnose the root cause for this. Your suggessions and insight might be helpful for me to get it over quickly.

Hi,
Generally, a message that has a large attachment or many recipients takes longer for a Hub Transport server to process than a small message that's addressed to only one recipient.
In Exchange 2010, after a message is received by the Hub Transport server, the message is added to the Submission queue. Messages move from the Submission queue through the categorizer. When the message is categorized, a recipient's e-mail
address is resolved to an object in Active Directory. This query determines the mailbox associated with that e-mail address and which Mailbox server is hosting that mailbox.
For more information about Internal message Routing, please refer to the following link.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb232193(v=exchg.141).aspx
In addition, Slow network bandwidth will effect email delivery. We can increase the network bandwidth to take a test. Low computer performance will also affect the delivery. If sending internal email without attachment to all employee or
large-member distribution group, will they take the same long time to deliver?
Best Regards.

I have just paid to install whatsapp and they sent me an email to confirm the information but it never got installed! it happened twice ! Any idea ?

i have just paid to install whatsapp and they sent me an email to confirm the information but it never got installed! it happened twice ! Any idea ?

They will not send you an e-mail. They send you an SMS, with the code to activate Whatsapp.
If you don't get the sms, wait 5 minutes with WhatsApp open. The timer will go from 5.00 to 0.00. If it is at 0.00 you can click it. You get the code via Phone. (Automatic)

Gmail forwarding and delivery confirmation receipts

I know this has been discussed, but I am unable to resolve the issue. So here is the situation . . .
I have a work email address (we manage our own email system internally). Emails sent to my work address get forwarded to my gmail account (so I can view them when I'm not at work).
I recently got a Pearl 8130 (Bell Mobility Canada) and set it up to pull messages from my gmail account.
When someone sends an email to my work address, they get a delivery confirmation (if they have confirmations turn on) from my *gmail* address. I don't want this to happen!
My understanding of this is that when an email is sent to my work address and then gets forwarded to my gmail and then onto my BB, it is the BB server that is processing the delivery confirmation (gmail ignores them) and then the BB server sends off the delivery confirmation but it looks to the original sender like the confirmation came from my gmail account.
This is not only a nuisance, but also a privacy issue (I don't want my gmail address revealed to those who send emails to my work address).
I have gone into my BB email settings and all confirmations are turned off.
While I have BIS, Bell Mobility no longer offers the web-based access to configure emails; only whatever I can do directly on my phone.
The only solution that I have read about is to set up a filter in BB/BIS/BES that catches these delivery confirmations from going out. But I cannot find a way to do this on my Pearl.
Any suggestions here would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks.

I'm also having this same problem.
I have a GMail account as my Apple ID. And I want the services of iCloud, i.e. mail, adress book, calendar. So I had to create an iCloud ID. Now for some unknown reason any email I send from my own GMail account to my iCloud account is rejected by iCloud.
This just won't due. If I buy something from Apple.com, I want the iCloud account to get the email. But it won't because I can't consolidate the two and I can't forward Gmail to my iCloud account.
Anyone else having this problem? Is Apple working on this?

User is getting email delivery failure when processing via SAP as it tries to send an email to a user who have left the company

Hi Experts,
I need to remove a name on a group list in Outlook as the user is getting email delivery failure when processing via SAP (He sends the invoice for approval and emails get sent to different users for approval.) One of those users has left the company and so the user gets a email delivery failure error.
How do I remove this user who is no longer with the company?
The user is saying: When I approve an invoice in SAP it sends an email notification through outlook. One of those users is no longer with the company so it cannot deliver the notification, and in return send a delivery failure (in outlook). I am approving the invoices from my SAP Workplace inbox.
How do we know what group the email is going to?
Please let me know if you have seen this issue before. Greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Asad

Hi,
Please check whether you are using a custom z program for sending emails of approved invoices to users. If yes then either the user email ids are hardcoded in the program else a ztable is maintained for them.

Why do I see blank fields that I chose to hide empty fields when when emailing a confirmation?

I have chosen to to not include empty fields when emailing a confirmation, yet I still see the blank fields. What can I do to remove these fields from appearing in my confirmation email?

Hi;
I believe you are speaking of the "Email Notification" that you, as the form Author recieve, which is setup on the "Email Notifications" sub-tab of the "Options" tab. In that email notification there is not an option to hide the blank fields. In the "Email Reciepts" sub-tab of the Options tab is where you configure email receipts sent to the form submitter, on that tab you can choose to incude the data but hide the blank responses, but that does not affect the email notification that you, as the author recieve. That email notification, if you choose to include the data, will always show all fields.
Let me know if that was not correct and you are saying that the email reciept to the submitter is showing blank fields when it should not.
Thanks,
Josh

Cant receive delivery confirmation anymore from e fax HP 7510

why cant i receive the efax delivery confirmation anymore? I have it set on the efax settings to recieve it. What happened? I have the HP 7510

Take a look in eprintcenter to see if they are showing up there. I find the main cause of the issue is that the disposition pages come from a different email address than the actual faxes. You will likely see that they are discared for not being on the allowed senders list. I believe the email for reports was something along the lines of [email protected] If you go to view job history in EPC it will show the email associated with every message that came in.

Can not sent email through Outlook 2003

Over the last few weeks I have been traveling in Canada and logging on through other peoples routers with no problemsI. Today I can access the web through a relations Bell wirless router and can access my mail at BT Yahoo. However when I try to use Outlook 2003 in the usual way I am reciving emails but all my sent emails are hanging in my Outbox. My wife is on a sub account of mine and she is having the same problems.

Outlook has worked fine in USA & Canada on previous trips and this one until lately. I have tried BT Broadband Help Desk to receive error message 0x800ccc18. When I go to BT Yahoo direct to find the meaning of the message I am told I may not be registered on Yahoo. I try the diagnostic link to the message and it fails. I have tried Live Chat with a waiting time of 25mins at the end of which I am told "No agent available"
I am not compuer literate, I just want to use my email in the manner I have done on countless trips abroad.
Hi again.
Can you confirm your smtp settings (mail server) and whether you have set smtp authentication, and make sure that SPA (secure password authentication) is unticked.
Like I said, to use the BTinternet mail servers you typically need to be connected to a BT connection. It does seem strange that you were able to use it before in my view, as it will usually fail.
I've read a few of your previous posts - the desktop help is in my view of very little value and can be uninstalled.
It could be a security package interferring with the process - what package do you have ? (e.g. anti-virus etc).
