How can I receive a "send receipt" for email I send?

How can I receive a "send receipt" when I send email?

You'll essentially get a "Send Receipt" immediately after sending as the message will appear in your Sent mailbox.
If you are looking for a "read reciept," It is pretty much not supported by Mail. You can set up a header for all outgoing email which will attempt to intrude on your recipients' privacy, but it will be for all emails.
Also, many email clients will not respond to a read receipt, including Mail. Even if they will respond to a read receipt, the default setting is uaually to ask the user prior to sending. So, there is no guarantee you will ever get a read receipt.
I have no idea if this still works: http://email.about.com/od/macosxmailtips/qt/et_request_recp.htm
If it is really that important to you, add a sentence to your signature explaining the great necessity that you need to invade your recipient's privacy and that they need to respond immediately to let you know they've read your email.

    How can I set up auto respond for email?

    Hey there jimmac169,
    It sounds like you want to have the Mail app automatically reply to emails that come in. You can do this in the app itself, but in order for the function to work, Mail needs to be open. Take a look at this info from the following article:
    Mail (Yosemite): Reply to, forward, or redirect messages
    Automatically reply to or forward messages
    Mail must be open before it can automatically forward or reply to messages. If you want to send automatic replies when Mail isn’t open—like when you’re on vacation—check with the provider of your email account. 
    Choose Mail > Preferences, then click Rules.
    Click Add Rule, then type a name for the rule.
    Indicate whether any or all of the conditions must be true for the rule to be applied.
    Set the conditions that determine which messages to automatically reply to or forward.
    Choose options from the “Perform the following actions” pop-up menu.
    Forward messages: Choose Forward Message from the first pop-up menu, then enter the email addresses where you want to receive the forwarded messages. Click Message, then enter any text you want to include with the forwarded message. For example, you could explain that you’re automatically forwarding messages. 
    Reply to messages: Choose “Reply to Message” from the first pop-up menu, click “Reply message text,” then enter your reply. Mail includes the full text of the original message in your reply. 
    Click OK.
    Carefully consider the rules you create. If they’re too broad, messages can be sent inadvertently or create loops (replies to replies you sent). If possible, test the rules. 
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

    That is not a feature of the Mail app. Check with your email provider to see if it's a service they offer.

    mail how do i set a read receipt for messages I send

    Hi Sunny
    There's no built-in option, and the workaround is rather complex. I would advise against it, since "read receipts" are not a standard part of the email protocol, and most email clients cannot return receipts or have it turned off anyway.

  • HT1349 How can I obtain an original receipt for a Time Capsule (external hard drive back up) that was stolen?  I want to get the serial number of the device.

    How can I obtain a receipt for the purchase of my Time Capsule back up external drive.  My drive was stolen and I am trying to find the serial number of the device.

    Unless you registered it, for warranty purposes, with the manufacturer, there's no way.
    Or if you have the box it came in, the box may have the S/N.

  • How do i get a read receipt for email

    How do I get a read receipt in mac e-mail?

    There is a workaround, but it's not reliable, so I don't recommend it.
    Email receipts are not a standard feature of email. Some email programs support it, some don't. If someone reads email online (ie, in webmail), no read receipt is created. Even if someone uses Outlook (which supports it), they have to turn the send-receipt feature on.
    So if you don't receive a receipt, you can not, unfortunately, know for sure that the message was not read.

  • How can I click on a link for email and have my email come up?

    When I want to send an email from a website, the link will not connect to my email program. It does from Safari and other people's Firefox. I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it. It still doesn't work. HELP!

    What email program or email site do you want Firefox to fire up to send the message?
    In the Preference dialog, you might be able to select the program from a list. In some cases, you need to take extra steps to add it to the list.
    Firefox > Preferences > Applications
    In the search box above the list, type '''mailto''' and then pause to let the list filter down. Does the drop-down control on the right side let you choose your preferred email program?

  • HT4914 How can I attach a song to an email to send to someone?  Thank you.

    When I switch to an android will I lose all the songs I purchased on iTunes ?

    In general you don't. Unless you own the copyright to the material you have no right to send a copy to anyone. The file sizes tend to exceed most sensible attachment limits so email isn't really the way anyway.

    I would contact Apple directly and have them work with to get the iPod shipped to a new/different address.

    I have a new iPad. I am using Comcast as my email provider but when I send a message, it pulls up the facebook email addresses for my  contacts  instead of the addresses stored in my comcast account.  How can I get rid of the Facebook email addresses? The comcast addresses are stored in the comcast (xfinity) app.  I do not use the "mail" or "contacts" apps ....I go straight to comcast (xfinity).  I wish I could start over!!!  thanks.
    iPad

    I could be wrong, but it sounds like Facebook imported to your contacts.  I have the Xfinity app on my new ipad, too, but none of my stored contacts from the online version are showing, only what I manually entered into the iPads contacts are there.  When I did add the FB app, I did not grant it permission to push and pull from my ipad (not a fan of FB knowing every detail about me), so that may be where our difference lies.  You could try to open the app and change your privacy settings, or delete it and then reinstall without granting permissions to integrate.
    I'm sure someone here with a lot more knowledge then me can probably diagnose your issue better, though.  Good luck!

    No one here with a crystal ball or into mind reading! Who did you buy the iPhone from? You should be talking to them about the receipt.

    Not sure if it works in Mountain Lion.
    Note that those only work if your recipients have allowed it to happen.
    Also, Mail will not respond to them at all.
