Disable read receipts on iPhone 4 IOS 4.1

I have some clients who request read receipts when sending me emails and although i have turned the automatic response off from Outlook client when i open the mail on my iPhone it will automatically send a notification to the user. I understand that the outlook configuration has no bearing on the iPhone behaviour but i cannot see the option to disable this function when viewing new emails from the handset?
Is this possible via the native email client or could anyone recommend a 3rd party app which will allow push functionality when connecting to a Microsoft exchange server?
Thanks Chris

There is no such option available on the iPhone and no 3rd party app can provide this option since no 3rd party app has access to private iPhone APIs and such an option would require that.
Push access for received messages is supported with an Exchange account accessed via ActiveSync. Microsoft's ActiveSync protocol is what allows/provides for this which Apple has licensed from Microsoft for use with the iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad, and with the Mail.app, Address Book, and iCal on a Mac running Snow Leopard - Apple's current OS X version.

  • How to disable read receipts

    I have just realized that my iPhone responds to read receipt requests by happily confirming when I've opened the message. I find that both a privacy invasion and a security issue, as well as something that contributes to spam increase. Is there a way to turn it off?

    This is a more serious issue because any junk mail using randomly generated e mail addresses is automatically getting confirmation that it has chanced upon a valid address.  This single issue has stopped me ordering over 1000 iphones for my company. 

  • Read receipts in iPhone & iPad email

    Is there any way that I can prevent read receipts from being sent out by my iphone? Currently it automatically sends them out.
    The issue that I am currently having is that I have read receipts turned off on my desktop computers, so when I read an e-mail on my desktop computers it doesn't get read on my iphone/ipad. After a while it will start sending out "not read" e-mails to the people that sent me the e-mails, even though the e-mails have been read. Just not professional. I would prefer not to have them sent out at all!

    Is this happening with all mail accounts on the iPhone or just a certain one. Try deleting and readding the mail account to the iPhone and test.

  • Sending read receipts

    How can I change settings to stop my mobile from sending read receipts? I’ve turned it off in outlook (as far as I know), but when using my mobile this does not seem to work. Using intellisync and an E65.
    appreciate any advice
    E65

    I logged into my Office 365 Outlook Web Access/Mail and disabled read receipts too, but believe another poster here commented that iOS devices are ignoring and/or by-passing the setting. 
    I'll have to see what it does for the Mail app on OS X. 
    But from what I've read in these forums related to the issue, if the mail.app doesn't support read receipts (which I realize is not a common standard), then why does it send a read receipt when you open/view an e-mail?  That doesn't make any sense. 
    I've always disabled read receipts.  I don't let email rule my day.  Just because I opened an email doesn't mean I read it and should reply to it in a certain time frame.  Your sense of urgency doesn't dictate a priority on my end. 
    In today's world, senders expect immediate responses, just like they do with text messages.  That is ludicrous. 
    Thanks for letting me ramble.  Sure wish there could be a setting or hack for OS X (at the terminal level) to disable this very annoying 'feature'. 

  • Read Receipt pop-up for email going out of CRM

    Hi All,
    Could any one let me know how do I enable read receipt for every email sent out of the ERMS system. Once the receiver tries to open the email, there should be an pop-up for read receipt.
    Regards,
    Ronit

    Hi Ronit
    Basis can enable read receipts for email sent out of the ERMS system:
    Go to SCOT. From menu select Settings > Confirmation of Receipt , here you have option to enable or disable read receipt.

  • Messages beta: turn off Read Receipt

    When I first installed Messages beta, I enabled Read Receipts.  But I'm 99% sure that it's causing messages to appear as Read even when I'm away from my computer.  Perhaps this is a status issue, since I don't have it set to timeout.  In any case, I'd like to disable Read Receipts on the Mac, but I don't see it in Preferences or other menus.  Where could it be?
    I guess the solution would be to uninstall Messages beta and reinstall it.  But I bet there's a hidden pref somewhere.

    Hi,
    In this Screen are you saying you cannot turn It Off now ?
    Uploaded with Skitch!
    It is strange as I don't remember the setting on Read Receipts during the set up process.
    As I launched it it just asked for an Apple ID.

  • I am still using my Apple G4 1.25 Ghz MDD running Leopard 10.5.8 with iTunes 10.6.3 installed. Can I use an Phone 4s with iOS 5 with this set up? I have read the iPhone iOS 5 user guide and it appears that I can but is anybody actually doing it ?

    Hello to all my readers.I am still using my Apple G4 1.25 Ghz MDD running Leopard 10.5.8 with iTunes 10.6.3 installed. Can I use an Phone 4s with iOS 5 with this set up? I have read the iPhone iOS 5 user guide and it appears that I can but is anybody actually doing it ? My current phone is a £10 Nokia and I've neither wish nor cash to spend more than a grand upgrading to an intel based machine (at the moment) ! Regards to you all.

    If you can find an iPhone running iOS5 and those are the specs for iOS5, there is no reason it should not work.
    If you want a more current version of iOS or a more current device, a Windows computer is always an option at significantly less cost. 
    Granted, there is no requirement to have a computer to use an iPhone.

  • How to get Read receipt in gmail app on iphone 4s?

    I have gmail app on my iphone 4s but i do not get read receipt option while sending mail kindly advise

    You can use 3rd party services to use read receipts with Gmail. Companies like ContactMonkey (www.contactmonkey.com) and Spypig offer email tracking for Gmail and Outlook. They're both pretty easy to use.

  • Hi i was wondering, my iphone(iOS 7.0.3) cant sync or cannot be read on my itunes(11.1.3.8) on my windows 8.1. So i was wondering if anyone knew when will windows and itunes be compatible officially? or is there another way to fix without waiting?

    Hi anyone can help? Cause i cannot sync my iphone(iOS 7.03) on my itunes(11.1.3.8) on windows 8.1? I heard that it is because windows 8.1 and itunes 11.1 " ain't compatible. So i was wondering if anyone knew when will they be compatible or is there another method without me doing much"harm" to my itunes or windows? Please your help is most wanted!!!

    I have 8.1 and iTunes and its working. My cloud doesn't so I had to remove the 'sync contacts and calendar to the cloud' and to back to the old say, but I just synced my iPad and iPos (both running 7.0.3) last night and it worked.
    There are features with 8.1 that may be messing things up. For example there's a setting when you upgrade to 8.1 where you can turn off the automatic install of drivers. With devices, every time the iOS and iTunes updates there is a new driver to make your device visible on a computer. If you turn off that auto install then you may have blocked your computer from getting that driver.
    In addition, with iOS7 there came the 'do you trust this computer' which is a choice you have to make on your device. If you tell your device no, then it may have issues connecting to your computer.

  • My wife, daughter and I have iPhones. We all have iMessage and Send Read Receipts activated. All the messages sent between the three of us are blue except those that my wife sends to me. They are green. Can anyone explain why.

    My wife, daughter and I have iPhones with iMessage and Send Read Receipts activated. All the messages sent between the three of us are blue however, when my wife messages me, the message appears in green on her iPhone. Can anyone explain why.

    Because some kind of error occured.  This is only from her iPhone to your iPhone?  Whenever she sends a message to any other iPhone, it is sent as blue?  And when anyone else sends you a message from an iPhone, it sends as blue?

  • IPhone 4s email account read receipts?

    Hey guys,
    Please give me some help here.  I am new to the Apple world, I am the new owner of the iPhone 4s (32GB).  I am a student and own my own business so needless to say that I am ALWAYS on my email.  I love the capabilities that the iPhone has to offer with regards to the email services, (having both my personal account and my school account synced to my iPhone.)  I am interested in finding out how I can request a read receipt from the individuals I send emails to.  I have not been able to figure out how to do this yet, I really hope there is a way. 
    Please help if you can!!
    Thanks again! Much appreciated!!!

    UPdate:  I tested the account on my android phone it worked fine. I then tested the same account on a friends iPhone 4 and it was the same results as the iPhone 4S. Reset phone to factory and restored the phone still same issue but it is only related to the one email account from Network Solutions. I have more than one account on the same domain but it only effects this one email address. I then called NS support we ran through a bunch of tests with same results. The only way you could get the account to pull new email was to email the account from the phone to the phone. Super weird. I did find a work around but not a fix. I downloaded sparrow email client and it works fine. Not sure what was up with this but thought I would share

  • TS4208 Apple Mail client no longer marks my mail as read on all my iOS devices. If I read a email on my iPhone and later open Mail on my iPad, the iPad still shows the email as unread.This changed recently, perhaps after iOS7 upgrade. Did I miss a setting

    Apple Mail client no longer marks my mail as read on all my iOS devices. If I read a email on my iPhone and later open Mail on my iPad, the iPad still shows the email as unread.This changed recently, perhaps after iOS7 upgrade. Did I miss a setting? All mail account are IMA. iCloud is set to push, business mail is set to fetch every 15 minutes.

    Read thier own support document on the subject then
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1795
    This document was written as an answer to all those who complained about it as paying MobileMe users
    They ignored us then and when MobileMe became iCloud they ignored us again, and just carried on with a system that will not update the e-mail read status across all devices
    That's how it works,   and like you 1000's of loyal Apple users cant believe it either but there you go

  • Why won't my iPhone rotate 90 degrees in ios7? It will go to landscape only. I have to place my phone upside down to charge in a stNd I have; I could read the screen in iOS 6 as it rotated that way. Now I can't do this???

    It will go to landscape and then back to right-side-up portrait. I have to place my phone upside down to charge in a stand I have; I could read the screen in iOS 6 as it rotated that way. Now I can't do this. What happened?

    Start with contacting AT&T to see if they can fix it.
    If not, restoring your phone, first from a backup, then as new, would be the next steps.
