Exchange Read Receipts

I think the answer is no, but I wanted to check here anyway. Can you do "Read Receipts" using Apple Mail with an Exchange account. Thanks.
Rob

I don't think it has changed in SL, but this is the way it was:
There are ways to add the header to a Mail message, but Mail doesn't respond at all to read receipts sent by other servers. If you google for Mail read receipt, you'll find a way to enable the header to send read receipts.

Exchange Read Receipt on Samsung Android Phones

All:
One of the principals at a company I work for informs me that
she used to have the ability to request a read receipt from her Exchange
account on an Android phone (Galaxy S4), but that the option recently
disappeared.
I’ve looked at her phone but can’t seem to find any such
option to enable a read receipt when sending a message, and my Web research
hasn’t turned up anything useful either.
Does anyone know how one gets Exchange read
receipts on a GS4? Thanks.

P.S. Just want to add that I know read receipts are pretty
much BS, but when the boss asks for something…well, you know.

E-mail read receipts - how to make them optional

Hi,
Is it possible to turn off "read-receipt" by default, or else to be asked, prior to such receipt being sent, for an activesync based e-mail account?
When using the e-mail account from my (work) laptop, Exchange read receipts are 'off', always. When reading any mail 'first' on the Q10 though, then any read receipt requested by the sender is sent, automatically.
I cannot find any (obvious) setting on the handset to toggle read receipts on/off.
(I imagine this is BB10, rather than handset specific?)
Thanks.

Hi, any answer on this?

Never ending story: Exchange and Outlook 2010/2013 - Read receipts (reading confirmation) implementation is buggy

OK, I try it again (for the fifth time or so), maybe anywhere in the big microsoft world there is ONE support engineer that is able to recognize a bug and hand it over to the development????
In several cases the read receipt does not contain the sending time of the original message, instead it contains (quite senseless) the time when the receipt itself has been sent.
The only information in the read receipt is the subject of the original mail which may be identical in longer mailthreads to several (dozends of) mails. So in this implementation you are not able to find out to which message a read receipt really relates.
So we cannot prove at all if a single mail in a thread has been read or not. The printout of such a receipt does not have any information that can be used in a meeting or discussion.
Since this situation obviously lasts for several years I'd like to ask
how I can get a working read-receipt-functionality for professional eMail-handling???
It seems that the problem does not lie in the content of the MDN sent by the Exchange server.
If I look into a copy of such a sent MDN with Thunderbird, it tells me for example, that my mail, sent on 15th Juli 2013 14:43:47 (UTC+1) has been read on 15th Juli 2013 14:50:08, which is correct.
But in combination with Outlook I get the same MDN displayed like follows:
Your message at... subject... sent Monday, 15. Juli 2013 14:51:30 (UTC+01:00)... has been read on Monday, 15. Juli 2013 14:51:16 (UTC+01:00) (Text translated from German to English)
So Outlook exchanges the timestamps and falsifies the content of the MDN.
This does only appear in combination with an Exchange server. If I work with a POP3 account and Outlook and send a message to an Exchange 2010 mailbox the correct timestamps are displayed within the returned MDN-message.
All involved systems are set to German (DE-de), the timezone on all systems is UTC+1
Here a small table with my tests
I've used Outlook on all Clients, 2010 and 2013.
Sender: sends initial mail and gets the Reading Confirmation
Receiver: gets the initial mail and sends the MDN
Sender     |     Receiver     |     MDN Display
POP3        |     Exchange   |     correct
Exchange |     Exchange   |     fail (displays wrong "sent"-time)
POP3        |     POP3         |     correct
Exchange |     POP3         |     fail (displays wrong "sent"-time)
It is obvious this cannot be a "feature". This is different behaviour depending on the senders Account type and one of this two scenarios must be a bug.
Could you help me further on this, please?

Almost no - the MS-Support here in this website was completely overchallenged to even understand this issue. I've tried several times to address this in this forum with no success. The "supporters" here had only one target - to quickly get this
"complicated" case off their desks.
The Office 365 support was much more competent and able to understand the problem. They escalated this to the development team (which lasted about 3 months, dozends of telephone calls and about 20 hours working time, which I had to donate to Microsoft freely)
and located the Problem in Exchange Server.
The result was that they promised to fix it in Exchange Server 2013, but there will be no Bugfix in Exchange 2010. I am waiting for the fulfilment of this promise since over 6 months.
Microsoft seems not to have any problem to leave their (professional and very expensive) Exchange software in a buggy state.
My conclusion: If Exchange 2010 runs out of maintenance I'll switch to Linux and Zarafa Server. The Zarafa guys are able to understand and fix their bugs and I do not have to donate thousands of Euros in working time only to get them understanding their
own bugs.
PS: You need only to press F1 in Office, especially in Access in the German language variant and you get an impressing lesson how desolate Microsoft is working today. Pressing F1 in Access 97 or XP lets you know, how much better they were some years ago.
An impressive deep fall down to the ground.

Exchange 2013 public folders are sending read receipts for items viewed in public folders

We have Exchange 2013 with public folders. These public folders are used for a large amount of shared contacts. When a user goes into the public folders and double clicks on a contact to view it, Exchange dispatches a read receipt to all users
that are configured as publishing editors to notify them that a certain contact was read. How do I disable this option?

hi again dear.. :)
"At first, I would like to say the
read Receipt is not sent out by the device, it is sent out by the Exchange server. This is how it works and what happens:
1.
E-mail with request for send
receipt is received on the Exchange server;
2.
E-mail is synchronized with Windows Mobile based device using Exchange
ActiveSync;
3.
When e-mail is
read on Windows Mobile based device the read status is synchronized back to the Exchange server;
4.
The Exchange server creates and sends out the
Read Receipt when receiving the Read status update from the device;
The above is how this is implemented and there is no functionality which allows preventing this from occurring on the Mobile device.
It seems that there is an alternative method to disable RR using transport rules. However, it will at the risk of the filtering out other messages
with the same subject.
Towards the third party mobile clients that support RR and DR, you might consider using Flexmail 4.11. It’s impossible to deactivate ActiveSync
RRs in Exchange server 2007/2010."
also
One way to stop read receipts being triggered through client side configuration on the mobile is to use the option "Don't Mark Read on server".
I have tested this successfully using this option in the TouchDown mail client on Android.
Not sure if the standard or other mail clients do support this option, TouchDown certainly does and it works.
The side effect obviously is, that the read status isn't synced back to Exchange anymore:"
hope now i r clear... one way or the other... you need to send a feed back or define a transport rule... but that again may create problem with the same subject :)

Outlook 2010 Exchange 2010 Read Receipt Request for all emails cannot be switched OFF.

I have a strange situation with an Outlook 2010 client using Exchange 2010. The user has Outlook configured so that Under Options/Mail/Tracking - that "Read receipt confirming the recipient has viewed the message" is turned off. Yet everytime she
sends a message, the option to request pops up on the recipient's outlook.
I have tried to toggle the option on and off to no avail. I can switch the Delivery Receipt request on and off and it is no issue.
Can anyone tell me what attribute in ADSIEdit or Exchange is that seems to be stuck ON?

Hi,
I believe you would like to block this only for the user and not for your ORG... ??
Although, you can block this for your entire ORG.
what happens is that the Read receipt contains a "Disposition-Notification-To"
If we get rid of this header we can restrict the receiver to get that prompt.
we can create a Transport rule either for the entire org or for that specific user by making an adjustment in the "exception tab"
for more info refer this blog.

Outlook 2013 with Exchange 2013 keeps giving read receipts

Hello experts,
We have an Exchange 2013 server. All users are joint to the domain, except one user (Windows 8.1) which is in a Workgroup, and using Outlook 2013 with IMAP protocol.
This particular user is having a problem. When he send's any email from Outlook and requests a read receipt, after that he keeps getting hundreds of read receipts in his inbox. I have tried disabling (for temporarily) the Windows server 2012 firewall, but
still having the same issue.
Is this a known bug in Outlook 2013 with Exchange 2013? Any help troubleshooting this?

Hi,
According to your description, I understand that IMPA account get hundreds of read receipts while he requests a read receipt.
If I misunderstand you concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.
Whether are all account or some special user experience this question? Please do a test in external with IMAP account to double confirm.
How about the “Request a Delivery Receipt”?
Also, please run message tracking log to get more details about message mail flow:
Get-MessageTrackingLog –Server “mailbox server” –Sender “[email protected]” –Recipient “[email protected]” –MessageSubject “Read: message subject” | Select Timestamp, ClientHostname,ServerHostname,Source,EventID,Recipients,RecipientStatus,Sender | ConvertTo-Html > “C:\Test\Test.xml”

How to filter out inbound Read receipts but prevent prevent notification to sender

Greetings,
For Exchange 2007, we would like to prevent external users from sending Read Receipt requests to our users. In the Outlook client, we can easily disable this. But for EAS users, their smartphones send a reply as soon as the email is opened. I've
applied a Hub Transport rule to strip out the "Disposition-Notification-To" from inbound emails but this causes a different message to be sent to the sender, "Delivery to these recipients or distribution lists is complete, but delivery
notification was not sent by the destination:". As a test, I've now also unchecked "Allow Delivery Reports" for Remote domains, but will this work? Should both settings be applied to avoid generating the response to senders as noted
previously?
Thanks

Hi,
From your description, you want to prevent the external users from receiving the read receipts of internal users.
You can create the following transport rule to achieve it. (Note: Because we use the "Read" as subject key word, it will delete the messages whose subject contain "read", please pay attention to use it.)
What's more, I have a test in my lab. If I choose "Read:" as subject key word, the transport doesn't work. When I choose "Read" as subject key word, it works.
Besides, to force an immediate update of transport rule, you can stop and start the Microsoft Exchange Transport service.
Hope it helps.
If you need further assistance, please feel free to let me know.

Generare e-mail status by tracking Delivery and Read Receipt?Challenge

Hi,
I got bit confused, How can I came to know that my e-mail has been successfully sent or not without opening my inbox.
Am sending 50,000 mails per day by using java mail sending program, while sending I am enabled Delivery and Read receipt and I saved message-id in database and I got that receipt back to my inbox.
Then I am reading my Inbox using another java program based on message-id concept, And also I need to parse the body of the mail to update the reason if any message failed.
Here my Inbox received more than 1 lac mails per day as receipts. Because am sending 50,000 mails, So, I got 2 receipt mails for 1 mail, totally 50,000*2=1lac mails in Inbox. My problem is, my reading Inbox java program not able read all 1lac mails at one day. It just reading 5,000 mails per day. When my next day mail sending process started, again i am getting another 1 lac receipts.
Since I am not able to read and delete the receipts completely, mail counts in my inbox getting accumulated. So, I got stuck, How can I do this?
If anybody have any other ideas please share with me.
Already I surfed on net lot, but I can`t find solution for this concept.
Thanks in advance.

I think the big question is why can you not read and remove the mail more quickly? What limits you to reading only 5,000 messages per day?
Also, is this about Oracle Communications Messaging Exchange Server (formerly known as Sun Java Messaging Server)?
If so, please include the output from the "imsimta version" command.
If not, you probably should ask in the JavaMail forum: JavaMail

Permit internal Read Receipts but prevent them from exiting organisation

http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2011/02/23/3412028.aspx
Above article explains how to delete Read Receipts in Exchange altogether.
Can I use Exchange to allow Read Receipts between internal users within the organisation but prevent read receipts from being sent to external mail addresses? Case in point is to prevent spammers from confirming live addresses within the organisation.
So we want to know if anyone has read our emails; we want to know if we've read each others emails and if the outside world has read our emails but we don't want the outside world to know whether we've read their emails.
I'm getting the impression that the functionality supported in Exchange means that you can only configure a rule like this on a separate gateway (front end?) if you want only external affected and you cannot specify the direction (i.e. allow incoming read
receipts but delete outgoing read receipts).

Prohibit delivery- and read- receipts

Does anyone know how you can prohibit Mail and Entourage from sending delivery- and read- receipts.
I could only find answers to the question how you can request them yourself, what is not an issue for me.

Mail doesn't send receipts for delivered nor read mail. "Read" receipts aren't supported in any Internet email client I know of, only in proprietary messaging systems such as Outlook/Exchange.
Entourage to the best of my knowledge by default doesn't return delivery receipts either, though I might have missed it in my copy. It appears that the only way to get it to do it is by manually adding special headers.
So if you don't want to be returning receipts, you don't need to worry.
Regards.

Read receipts in iCloud email?

Hi there
I would desperately like to get access to read receipts on my iPad. I have a yahoo email and an iCloud email (new this morning) but none seem to have the option of gaining a read receipt?
Anyone have any ideas how I can do this please?
Cheers in advance
Sam

Read receipts aren't provided by IMAP and POP email accounts. They are usually only available in Microsoft's proprietary Exchange system, and even then, only if the email recipient has them turned on, and their email client supports them.

Tow read receipt for one email

musheer sheikhali <[email protected]>; on behalf of; musheer sheikhali
musheer sheikhali <[email protected]>;
these are 2 read receipt for the same email

Hi,
May I know how you could tell where the read receipts are generated from? What is your Outlook version?
Sometimes Cached Mode may cause the duplicate read receipts issue, this is because the cached file is corrupted, please run Scanpst.exe to repair the .ost file to test the result:

"Not Read" receipt received from sender for all emails sent.

We recently migrated from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013 and I've got one user that started having a strange problem after the migration. She has Outlook set to request a read receipt for all emails that she sends and that works fine except that
for every email she sends, she gets a "Not Read" receipt back and this not read receipt comes from her as if she sent the email to herself and didn't read it. She also get the not read receipt if she deletes emails that are in her sent box
and again, the not read receipt comes from her.
This user is using Outlook 2007 SP3 with all available updates installed. We've tried a new profile and we've also tried on a different computer with the same results. She doesn't have any rules set up except for the one for clearing categories
that I believe is a default rule. I've checked the settings of the rule and there is nothing there that would be causing this. The other strange thing is that these not read receipts seem to come in batches. If she sends one email the the
not read receipt doesn't show up or at least not immediately. If she sends 2 or 3 messages then she'll get all of the not read receipts for those 2 or 3 messages at the same time.

Hi
Please check this thread
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/2dbf0122-8d63-4375-91b4-6ba2cf52ed2e/not-read-receipt-to-senders
Tell the senders to stop sending messages with read receipts and it wont be a problem
And to To determine the problem, Please test the feature on local side to check whether the symptom occurs. Meanwhile, you can let the sender in remote domain send message to other domain to
check the result.
