Read receipts for mail

Is there any way to get a read receipt with Mail like there was when I had Outlook in a previous life? Cant find how to block a read receipt when requested either. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

The Mail application does not include a read receipt request for sent messages nor does it provide a read receipt without your knowledge when requested by the sender of a message when opening a received message.
I consider this an invasion of privacy. A minor one but an invasion of privacy nevertheless.
Via the Terminal, you can have Mail "request" a read receipt for all sent messages but this will work only if the recipient's email client supports this and the recipient enables the option.

  • Read Receipt for Email using Java Mail

    hi,
    i am trying to implement requesting the read receipts for the email sent out.
    for that i got some information that by setting header "Disposition-Notification-To" and the value should be "<Destination email address>"
    should i need to make any changes in the mailing server or i can handle it in my code to save it in the database.
    can some one please guide me so that i can implement this.
    Thank You

    Hi Bshannon,
    From your response, I understand that setting Disposition-Notification does not give a complete result for the read-receipts (We do not receive notifications from all domains, I tried gmail, yahoo, and other domains as well).
    Since your reply was sent 2 years ago, I would like to know any new solution found to get a complete read-receipt  notifications from all domains?.
    Your response would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • Mail how do i set a read receipt for messages I send

    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 do i enable read or delivery receipt for Mail?

    how do i enable read or delivery receipt for Mail?

    I entered this code into terminal replacing "your name" with my email address:
    defaults write com.apple.mail UserHeaders '{"Return-Receipt-To" = "[email protected]"; "Disposition-Notification-To" = "[email protected]"; }'
    I've read it worked for some, but I could not get it to work. Does Mail automatically override this?

    It is possible, though not through the GUI. And as Dave points out, asking for a receipt does not mean that you will get one. The magic incantations for requesting receipts are detailed, amongst other places, in this article. It requires using the Terminal, and once set affects all messages you send until you unset it again.
    If you search this forum for read receipts (the topic surfaces frequently) you should find a helpful Applescript for turning them on and off, to save using the terminal.

  • 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.
    Yours.

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

    is there way to get read receipts in mail and do you get non deliverable notifications??

    I'm a little fuzzy on your question.
    If you are trying to "Bounce" and email, I regret to inform you that Apple removed that feature a few years ago.  There are other email programs available that have this capability.

    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.

    Hmm, had a bit of a look round but it doesn't look like it's particularly straightforward, esp if you want to turn it on or off on a per mail basis:

  • Tow read receipt for one email

    dear all
    I was  installed exchange 2013 in stead of 2003 few days ago from that time Iam facing problem with the read receipt
    one is generated from the server and the other upon client request for read report the means anyone send us email he received tow read messages for the email the first is onbehalf the receipt and the other upon the sender request for exmaple
    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:
