how to set up read receipts?

Mail can send a read receipt request:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1183650
However, note that read receipts are extremely unpopular, because of privacy issues as well as abuse by spammers (verifying addresses by using read receipts).  Most savvy users have this feature turned off, if their e-mail client even supports it, which many don't.  So not receiving a read receipt tells you absolutely nothing.  That makes the entire read receipt system pretty much useless.
Mail will not, ever, respond to a read receipt request.

  • How to set up read receipts in mail on OSX Mavericks

    How do you set up read receipts in mail on OSX Mavericks? I've looked under settings for the mail app but can't see anything that I can 'turn on' to get an indication when an email has been read. Thanks for any responses in advance.......

    Hi, there.
    Unfortunately, there's no such feature on Mail. No version of it has ever had.
    Besides that, read receipts are not good at all. It is up to the recipient whether or not to send a receipt. So you will never know if the recipient never read the email or just didn't send a receipt.

    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.

  • How can I set a "Read Receipt" so that I know my emails have been opened?

    I have Mail 2.1 and have gone through all the menus and cannot figure out how or what I need to do to get a read receipt email to find out if the messages I have sent to certain recipients have been opened. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks so much!

    The Mail.app does not include this feature nor does it provide a read receipt without your knowledge when requested by the sender of a message. There is a Terminal command you can enter to request a read receipt for every sent message but not by individual message.
    Keep in mind, if the recipient's email client supports providing a read receipt when requested by the sender of a message, the recipient also has the ability to deny providing a read receipt for messages read if requested by the sender.
    I use Windows Outlook at work and I don't request a read receipt for sent messages nor do I provide it when requested by the sender of a message.

  • How to set the read only property for dynamic ALV column

    Hi All,
    I have built one dynamiv ALV and I have one name column inside that ALV for which I have to set read only property based on two column fields that exist in the same ALV,say IS_SP and IS_CORP of type boolean.
    If any one of the flag is 'X',i have to make that name column as display only and
    If both flag are not set,it should be displayed as ediatable column.
    I have written one method as INIT_ALV which gets called when ALV is loaded.
    Code is as  follows:
      lr_column_settings ?= wd_this->alv_all_roles.
      lt_columns = lr_column_settings->get_columns( ).
    LOOP AT lt_columns INTO ls_column.
    CASE ls_column-id.
       WHEN <NAMECOLUMN>. "name column which should be editable/display
    Create Input Field
            CREATE OBJECT lr_uie_input_field_ro
              EXPORTING
                value_fieldname = ls_column-id.
         ls_column-r_column->set_cell_editor( lr_uie_input_field_ro ).
        After this,I have to set the read only property based on IS_SP and IS_CORP values,
              CALL METHOD lr_uie_input_field_ro->set_read_only_fieldname
              EXPORTING
                *value = 'IS_SP' or 'IS_CORP'
    ENDLOOP.
    I dont want to use cell variants also.
    Help me to achieve this.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Divya

    Divya - I have done it in the past following these documents. Please read it and try it it will work.
    Please read it in the following order since both are a continuation documents for the same purpose (it also contains how to change colors of row dynamically but I didnt do that part I just did the read_only part as your requirement)

    I can able to get the Delivered/Undelivered receipt using following code, but am not able to receive Read receipt.
    Am sure I need to add few lines to get that Read receipt. But am not get exact code to achieve that. Already I have searched lot here.Still not get exact code to read receipt using DSN.
    Following is a code, Which am using to get Delivered/Undelivered receipt successfully:
    import java.util.*;
    import javax.mail.*;
    import javax.mail.internet.*;
    public class testMail {
        public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
            String host = "172.15.4.12";
            String from = "[email protected]";
            String to = "[email protected]";
            String dsn = "SUCCESS,FAILURE,DELAY ORCPT=rfc822;" + from;
            // Get system properties
            Properties properties = System.getProperties();
            // Setup mail server
           properties.setProperty("mail.smtp.host", host);
           properties.put("mail.smtp.dsn.notify", dsn);
            // Get the default Session object.
            Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(properties);
            // Create a default MimeMessage object.
            MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
            // Set the RFC 822 "From" header field using the
            // value of the InternetAddress.getLocalAddress method.
            message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
            // Add the given addresses to the specified recipient type.

            message.setText("Delivered:");
            // Send message
            Transport.send(message);
             System.out.println("Message Send.....");
    }with above code,I can able to get Delivered/Undelivered receipt.
    I need code to get the Read receipt by using Java mail API.
    Already I did lot of search in google and got weird.
    Thats why I post here.If anybody have the sample code to do this pls., share here..this helpful to lot.

  • Setting mail read receipt

    Hello,
    I'm trying to send a msg with read receipt but in mail theres no option for that. I've googled on the subject, find some information, but i'm not sure that is completely correct.
    Anyone of you guys have tried to work this out?
    Thanks for your time and help.
    Cheers

    Whatever you found is likely correct.
    Mail does not support read receipts, I imagine because it is a stupid concept.
    You can set up Mail to always add a custom header that requests a read receipt. There is no way to set that up on a per email basis. It is all or nothing.
    Why is it a stupid concept you might ask? Because read receipts depend on the destination email client to handle them (Mail does not), and they depend on your recipient allowing them to be sent. I believe all email clients are now set up with automatic response turned off, if it exists at all. So, you not getting a read receipt is completely useless. You have no idea if the email has not been read, or the person you sent it to doesn't allow responses or if their email client even knows what to do with the read receipt.
    Also, spammers have co-opted the read receipt to validate their email lists. Send a read receipt and get a response = valid email address to sell.
    Instead of trying to sneak in a read receipt on someone, politely request in the email itself notification that they have read your email as it is very important to you for some reason.

  • TS3276 How do I request Read Receipts in Mail?

    Other mail programmes like Thunderbird allow me to request a read receipt so that I know the email has been received and read. I connot find this useful function in Apple's Mail. Am I just missing it?

    See here:
    http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20050512155856402
    There's every likelihood that your recipients' email clients are configured to ignore receipt requests, though. There's nothing you can do on your end to guarantee that your recipients will even see the requests, much less respond to them.

  • HT5361 how to put a read receipt to my email im sending

    Hi, I am trying to send a email and I want to make sure they receive it and read it. Is there a way to get a return email when they open the email I send them?
    Thanks Felicity

    You can always add a message to the end of the email. Something like:
    While it is completely none of my business what you do with my email, my life would not be complete until you informed me that you read my email.
    Also note that the read receipt is not responded to when actually read (however the email client interprets that). If you do any pre-processing on a message, like automatically sending all email with a read receipt to the trash, it will generate the response. So, it doesn't tell you anything like what you expect even if you do get a response.

  • How to set Adobe Reader as default for reading pdfs?

    I recently added Adobe photoshop.  Now when I get a PDF attached to an email or the help file in another program it's automatically opened in Adobe Photoshop.  How do I change that to Adobe Reader?

    I had MS Word set by Windows 7/64 as .PDF default and could not get any version of Adobe Reader to install as the default.  Adobe support rejected the case Your Case Number:0181940706. After much searching, I found a Windows forum (not in Microsoft) that had the attached tool.  Worked great, all pdf files now have acrord icons and open automagically (sic) with Reader X.
    I've attached the link for you.  If Ray at Adobe support reaads this, feel free to share it with your co-workers. The tools can fix a defeult association for any file type.

  • How to set Adobe Reader as the default in Safari 6

    When running 10.6, Safari defaulted to Adobe Reader to open documents not otherwise specified by an extension (e.g., docx).  However, in 10.8 w/ 6.0 the default reader appears to be TextEdit - which returns garbage from my financial instituitions.  I can download the file and then open with AR but how do I set 6.0 to default to AR rather than TextEdit?  I am not given the option to select the program to open with by right/option clicking the file link and I am not sure I want to make AR the default for all .txt files.....

    The plug-in is there - but the default still is textedit..... looking at Adobe's site they had some issues in the past with Lion and Safari 5.1 earlier this year..... maybe a solution is forthcoming from that corner?  However, that was tied to Rosetta sooo.......  I'll cogitate some more but any other ideas are welcome.....  Thanks for your help this evening.....

  • How to set and read pixels?  AffineTransform?

    I understand how the AffineTransform class works but I don't see a way to set the color of and read the color of individual pixels in my JPanel. Any help will be apppreciated.

    you can't do that with AffineTransform. AffineTransform let's you translate/rotate/shear/scale before rendering, but you don't have access to pixel values.
    Try instead creating an empty bufferedimage, draw into it whatever you want and then you have access to the pixel values via bufferedImage.getRGB()/setRGB().
    or you get more basic and manipulate the WriteableRaster of your image directly.

  • How to set "VISA Read" as a event source?

    I want to made the VISA Read as one of the event source.
    For instance,  whenever the "VISA Read" read one byte, it can creat a event, so the event can process it.
    How to realize it? Thank you.

    hi there
    please try the attached vi (not testet cause i don't have any serial device at hand).
    it uses a string indicator as the data buffer. if there is new data the vi sets the "Val(Sgnl)" - property of the control which itself raises the "value changed" - event. i don't see a possibility to connect user events and VISA. there are the VISA - events (see the VISA advanced palette, but they also can't be connected to a event structure)
