Read receipts - help!!

My bby curve 8830 is sending read receipts to people who request them of me. I want to NOT send any. I go to Options/Email settings but it does not allow me to control read receipts on my corporate/company issued email address (master account for the bby) but I can control them on the personal/gmail address I set up on the bby
why cant i see these read receipt options for the main/comapny issued address?
Many thanks!!

Help in getting the Read receipt in external mails ( like yahoomail , gmail

Hi Experts,
Scenario : We are sending notification mail to our external vendors for example abc.hotmail.com. We expect a Read acknowledgement to ensure the external vendor has gone through our notification generated from our SAP system. Point to consider is the two mail servers are different, sending mail server is configured to Outlook where as the receiving server will differ each time.
It would be better if anyone lets me know whether SAP ensure that we get read receipt (
acknowledgement) from other mail servers also?
Steps followed are:
Process 1: Using the function Module: SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1
Populating the fields:
    wa_receivers-receiver   = <External Email address>.
    wa_receivers-rec_type   = 'U'.
    wa_receivers-notif_read = 'X'.
Passing this structure to the Tables parameter: Receivers.
However the read receipt is not obtained.
Process 2: Using the class and the method:
cl_send_request_bcs=>create_recipient_from_soos1
The structure is getting populated as:
        recipient_soos1-recesc = 'U'.
        L_recipient_soos1-recextnam = < External email>
        l_recipient_soo1s-read      = 'X'.
Also passing:
I_requested_status = u2018Au2019.
I_status_mail = u2018Au2019.
CALL METHOD send_request->set_status_attributes
            EXPORTING
              i_requested_status = i_requested_status
              i_status_mail      = i_status_mail.
However the read receipt is not obtained.
Basis Settings:
SCOT->Settings->Confirmation of Receipts -> the first option is checked.
However still we are not getting the read receipt. The Delivery receipt is obtained but not the read-receipt
Thanks

Hi,
Using the FM : SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1
When you pass values to
RECIEVERS
for Delivery reciept : notif_del = 'X'
for Read reciept : notif_ndel = 'X'
Try shceduling the report : RSCONN01 with default job name : SAPCONNECT ALL SEND
and check if this helps.
Cheers,

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.
Best regards,
Amy

Read receipt in snow leopard mail...

I am relatively new to mac and mail. can anyone please help me with delivery receipts and read receipts like one can get from those awful windows applications?

I think, sometimes Apple should be a little less educative. Their bossy attitude "If we don't put it in, then you don't need it...“ has proven them wrong a few times. Remember "copy/paste" on the first iOS ?
Rather then adding a lot of fancy stuff like "dialogues" in Mail, it can't be that complicated to add a little box somewhere next to signature to request a read-receipt. I just upgraded to Lion and I'm amazed that this feature (because it is a feature, never mind if receivers are confirming or not) is again missing.
Its often good to know that your mail has reached destination, especially if you attach important documents to it - in which case the receiver will accept to confirm.
Just for this feature, I'm once again obliged to keep Thunderbird next to Mail.

Read receipt not working in Outlook 2010

Hi. I am having some problems with read receipt. It does not work on my computer, it works fine on my co-workers computers. It worked fine for a couple of weeks but no I neither receive read receives from others to confirm nor do mine get sent
with my mails.
I have looked at rules and I have no rules. I really need this to work because of my work.
can someone please help me ?
Thanks
Baldvin

Hi Baldvin,
Did you tick the 'Request a Read Receipt' option when composing a new message? Or did you select the option "Read receipt confirming the recipient viewd the message" under
File tab > Options > Mail >
Tracking section?
Can you confirm if the recipient clicked Yes button and agreed to send the receipt?
You can send test emails with a request for read receipt to yourself to check the result.

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.

How can I get Read receipt using DSN?

Hi all,
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.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(to));
        // Set the "Subject" header field.
        message.setSubject("hi..!");
        // Sets the given String as this part's content,
        // with a MIME type of "text/plain".
        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.
Thanks in advance.

       //below one line code I added to get read receipt mail.

Hi bshanon thanks for your kind reply

Read Receipts and Conversations

It would be great if we could get read receipts included with conversations. For instance, if I send an email with a subject of "Project Update", I get a read receipt that's titled "Read: Project Update". The receipt isn't included in the conversation, where it should be. Including this would be helpful.

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).

Hi,

Read Receipt in Mail

Is there a way of having a read receipt on the email i send out?
Rob

I wouldn't take it with a grain of salt. I would, however, do more testing. Here is what I came up with.
I sent out two more test messages to the same five emails. Those emails were a veriety of email types accessed from a variety of modalities. Some of the emails were sent to mail on a private hosts like 1and1, some were sent to gmail accounts, and some were sent to @me.com accounts. The two messages we sent were one HTML email and one plain text email.
In all cases, where we sent plain text emails, no tracking was accomplished.
In all cases where HTML messages were sent, tracking was accomplished regardless of client, local or web, or account type. The tracking was genuine and in fact tracked true opens and not just server downloads. In fact the tracking was so fine-tuned, we could track how many times a particular account opened that particular message... in real time.
So, it is either something clever embedded in the HTML, or it is a picture being counted by the server as somebody else mentioned. But, how would the server know what email account is pinging the picture file? I would love for it to be something in the code of the message itself. If that's the case - that a script in the message itself it sending a 'read' tag or something back to some other component, regardless of client - that means we could set up the same thing without using HTML... maybe? Any thoughts? Should I post the script of a message here?
I know people are very particular about their privacy, but to answer to that: 1) let's all get over the idea that anything we do online, ever, is private - especially email, and 2) I'm at a school where we're dealing with students with particularly bad habits. Being able to say to them, "Well, Stewart, I see that you did in fact read the email. Actually, you looked at it three times. So, I know you knew about the work." will put to bed that excuse real quick and help them succeed more often more efficiently.

Can I get a Read Receipt with Mail, like in Outlook?

Can I get a Read Receipt with Mail, like in Outlook?
W.W.

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.

Read receipts in mail

Is there a way to have a read receipt sent to me when my message is read using mail?
Never had a need prior to now but now I do.
Thanks for any help.

If the e-mail client asks the recipient if they want to send back a receipt then they can choose what to do depending on the particular e-mail.
See, I strongly disagree there. It is nobody's business whether or not I read an e-mail message, and not only would I never be interested in allowing that, but I would be extremely annoyed if I were constantly hassled with requests to approve a read receipt request. If my mail client behaved that way, I would choose a different mail client, or I would add anyone who sent me a read receipt request to a "ban" rule that would direct their messages straight to the trash.
You say "Privacy becomes an annoyance when it stops the use of useful features," but in this case the debate is about my privacy vs your useful features. In such a case, my privacy always wins. If it were a question of me giving up some privacy to gain features that are useful to me... well, that's a different story, and we all do that to some degree every single day. But this is not that case. Read receipts are all about compromising one person's privacy for another person's gain.
Now, of course, you are welcome to do as you like. I'm sure there are probably e-mail clients that will behave the way you like, and I'm sure there are people who don't care about responding to read receipt requests. However, to expect system-wide changes, or changes to a major e-mail client like Mail, is unrealistic, because there are many people who have the same feelings about this that I do, and who would resist any change such as you suggest extremely strenuously.

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.

Mail read/ receipt option.....

hello , just read ur helpful post, but really looking for a mail program that can offer i read/received confirmation tool......any idea where i can find it,,,,,,,,,,,bizarre that mail on MBA does NOT offer this option that's quite common on windows .........thanks for ur help.....

bizarre that mail on MBA does NOT offer this option that's quite common on windows
"Common on Windows" meaning "included in Microsoft's e-mail clients?" Okay. Commonly used by Windows users? No, I don't think so.
It's important to note that:
1) Most e-mail clients either don't support sending read receipts or don't send them by default.
2) Many (most?) people using clients that will send read receipts don't turn them on for some very good reasons (security, privacy, etc).
For these reasons, it's important to understand that not receiving a read receipt tells you absolutely nothing about whether the message was read or not. In addition, receiving a read receipt is not a guarantee that the message was actually read and understood... people often glance at an e-mail and then put it aside, meaning to act on it later. Thus, is the information a read receipt is able to give you actually worth having? In what way will it make your life easier or get your work done faster? For the most part, it won't affect your workflow at all, so why bother with it?
As my wife the doctor would say, if the results of a test won't change the treatment, what's the point of putting the patient through the discomfort involved?

IMessages: the read receipt is not consistent?

Apologies but I'm getting so much into my iPhone. And I've found this forum so helpful!
Right: I've turned my iMessages back on, with the read receipt also on. You see I text A LOT. Now 3 contacts are telling me that just beneath their sent message to me, blue bubble, sometimes it says 'read' and sometimes it says 'delivered'. But truly I have read all their messages, in fact I've even replied (when it just said delivered). I checked my settings, the read receipt is still on. So why is it not consistent? Many thanks.
