Can I ask for proof that my mail has been read

I'm looking for what is sometimes called "read receipt" in other email programs. Where's the box to click to ask them to confirm that the message has been received at the far end?

Well, yes, but it seems to be a somewhat cumbersome workaround!
Indeedy! And at the end of the day you're still reliant on the receivers email application supporting it.

  • How to get notification that a mail has been read

    Is there any way to use Java mail to tell if a mail that you sent has been read?

    I think you are asking too much....
    ok fine i will put that in a different way...see for sending mails you are using JavaMail right.... and u might be sending mails to other mail servers say yahoo.com or hotmail.com...or anithing else... so when the person at the other end reads the mail...say yahoo.com... yahoo server knows that the mail is read... so it is impossible to reply back automatically to the person who sent the mail...
    yeah it is very much possible if this is with in the server...say withing your organisation like <[email protected]>...so that u are implementing both the parts i mean reading mails and writing mails... so the control is in your hand.
    I hope I am very clear...
    all da best

  • How can I see if a sent e-mail has been read?

    Having moved from a PC to a MAC, in Outlook and Thunderbird I was able to get an e-mail response when an e-mail I had sent had been read. I have searched preferences within Mail but have been unable to see how to set set this up.

    There is no option for read receipts in Mail.app, thank heavens. There are a few scripts around which supposedly add this function but from what I have read they are unreliable and I don't know if any would work in Snow Leopard.
    As an aside user of Outlook (which supports them) can disable this function so asking for one can be a waste of time.

  • I always have trouble with my mailbox. It is always asking for my passwords but everything has been verified. How can I get it to stop doing it and start working????

    I always have trouble with my mailbox. It is always asking for my passwords but everything has been verified. How can I get it to stop doing it and start working????

    There is only one thing that happens -- the Server does not respond.
    Your mac concludes that you must have entered the wrong password. That may happen once, but then other issues become more likely, and it keeps asking for a new password.
    Sometimes the Server is down for maintenance. Sometimes something is configured wrong. Some services do this on purpose to get you to use WebMail (pick up your Mail with your Browser) so they can show you some ads.

  • How can I get rid of the constant asking for PIN whenever my iPad has been sleeping?

    How can I get rid of the constant asking for PIN whenever my iPad has been sleeping?

    You can turn it off:
    Settings > Passcode > enter your passcode > Turn Passcode Off.
    For security's sake, I recommend changing the amount of time that passes before it locks as opposed to turning off completely:
    Settings > Passcode > enter your passcode > Require Passcode:
    Immediately
    After 1 minute
    After 5 minutes
    After 15 minutes
    After 1 hour
    After 4 hours

    When I click on "Where did the error occur" -> "Adapter Engine", I do not have a choice of errors from the dropdown. I only see one option "*".
    Is this right?

    I see.
    I've also managed to overcome this problem by selecting "Subscription Authorization" in the Alert Category Definition page, and entering SAP_XI_MONITOR as one of the roles.
    After that, I am able to see a the alert category defined. By default it's already subscribed, because I'm using the same user - PISUPER.
    I saw in another post that the option "Suppress Multiple Alerts of this Rule" should be left unchecked. I tried that, but I still do not see any alerts raised in ALRTDISP.
    What did I miss?
    Please help.
    Thanks.

  • Can I access all dates that a website has been visited?

    I have been utilizing the History function to see when a page was last visited and how many times it has been visited.
    I would like to see every instance of when I have visited a page. For example, I have visited google.com 27 times in the last month; I can see that I last visited google.com yesterday. But, I would like to see a list of every date/time that I visited google.com in the past month.
    Is this possible?
    Thanks for your help.

    Firefox only shows the last time that you've visited an URL and a visit count.
    You will have to use the SQLite Manager extension to see all visit dates.
    You can use this query and change url LIKE '%google.com%' to the URL that you want to check.<br />
    A percent symbol ("%") in the LIKE pattern matches any sequence of zero or more characters in the string.
    * SQLite Manager: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/sqlite-manager/
    # Open Profile Directory -> places.sqlite -> Go
    # Hit the Execute SQL tab
    # Use a Select like this:
    <pre><nowiki>SELECT datetime(visit_date/1000000,'unixepoch') AS visit_date, url, title
    FROM moz_places, moz_historyvisits
    WHERE moz_places.id = moz_historyvisits.place_id AND url LIKE '%google.com%'
    </nowiki></pre>
    * Click Run SQL to generate a results list
    * Click the Action button to Save the results to a CSV file
    See also:
    * http://www.sqlite.org/lang_expr.html#like
    *A percent symbol ("%") in the LIKE pattern matches any sequence of zero or more characters in the string
    *An underscore ("_") in the LIKE pattern matches any single character in the string
    *Any other character matches itself or its lower/upper case equivalent (i.e. case-insensitive matching)

  • Getting Receipt confirming e mail has been read

    When sending an e mail I would like confirmation that it has been opened / read by the person (s) it has been sent to.
    Can it be done..?
    How do you set it up..?

    I found something online which does the job very well.
    PLEASE NOTE: I did not create this but I couldn't find the link to the site I found it on initially, so apologies to the original write for not giving credit.
    Paste this into Script Editor and make into an application.
    Double clicking on it will present you with a dialogue box asking which account you wish to use (if you have multiple accounts) and will then pop up a normal compose mail box.
    For some reason if you have images attached to your signature it doesn't display them when you compose your mail but it will still send them regardless.
    Obviously this is subject to the receiver having a mail client that will accept read receipts.
    tell application "Mail"
    set listOfSenders to {}
    set everyAccount to every account
    repeat with eachAccount in everyAccount
    set everyEmailAddress to email addresses of eachAccount
    if (everyEmailAddress is not equal to missing value) then
    repeat with eachEmailAddress in everyEmailAddress
    set listOfSenders to listOfSenders & {(full name of eachAccount & " <"Which account would you like to send this message from?" without multiple selections allowed
    if theResult is not equal to false then
    set theSender to item 1 of theResult
    tell application "Mail"
    set newMessage to make new outgoing message with properties {}
    tell newMessage
    set visible to true
    set sender to theSender & "
    Disposition-Notification-To: " & theSender
    end tell
    activate
    end tell
    end if
    I hope this helps you out. Tested and working in 10.4.11

  • Notify when mail has been read

    Is it possible to set Mail to notify you when messages you have sent have been read?
    G4   Mac OS X (10.4.1)  

    There is a Mail.app plugin available for Jaguar/Panther Mail that provides a read receipt request but I don't believe a Tiger Mail.app version has been provided.
    Check my reply to this thread and the link provided by Andreas Amann.

  • Knowing when outgoing mail has been read

    is there a way to automate Mail so that you know when a "sent" email has been opened by the recipient?

    No, and there is really no way of knowing, and many people (me too!) would consider that it would be an invasion of privacy if it was available. If the recipient's client supports it, and the recipient has not turned it off, you may be able to get a delivery receipt - see this thread yesterday.

  • Mail icon shows new mail but all mail has been read.  Won't update with phone reset.

    My mail icon shows new mail (1 currently) but I have no new mail.  I have synced phone and turned off several times to no avail.

    If you have reset your phone several times and does not fix , then restore your phone in itunes from your backup. Be sure that you have a recent backup with all items that you wanted saved, synced.
    BEFORE, you do the restore, try deleting the mail account and reaading it and see if that fixes the issue, otherwise , then do the restore.

  • Hi Apple! My iphone 4g has restored and I can't retrieve the account. I have tried the password renewal that will be send on my mail but unfortunately my mail has been deactivated also.what is your solution for this kind of cases? This is so unfair.

    Hi Apple! My iphone 4g has restored and I can't retrieve the account. I have tried the password renewal that will be send on my mail but unfortunately my mail has been deactivated also.what is your solution for this kind of cases? This is so unfair.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com.  Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE:  This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
    If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address.  Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466, and ask for account security.  You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.
