Receipts for mail

How do I get a read or delivered receipt for e-mail?

If you want a Read Receipt (assuming your recipient is using Windows or sending mail through an Exchange server, quit Mail and enter this command in Terminal (with the quotes):
defaults write com.apple.mail UserHeaders '{"Disposition-Notification-To"="[email protected]";}'
substituting "[email protected]" with your real email address. After entering the command, press Enter and then quit Terminal. All emails sent from now on will include a request for a Read Receipt, though you're not guaranteed to get one.
If you want to delete that Read Receipt request in the future, enter this command in Terminal and press Enter:
defaults delete com.apple.mail UserHeaders

    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?

  • 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.

  • Delivery receipt for mail

    Is there a way to receive delivery receipts for email sent from iphone IOS8.1
    Had a couple of cases when emails haven't arrived for some reason so would be good to get a message to say it's been delivered OK
    Cheers

    That would depend on using a mail service that offers it, as well as an app that supports it. In many cases, even though your service may support it, the recipient's may not. For what its worth, Microsoft's OWA app doesn't even support it (even though it is a function of Exchange Mail Services).
    And frankly, most recipients find it - at best - an annoyance.

  • 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

    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.

  • Asking for a receipt for e-mail

    Hello, I would like to know how to send an e-mail and ask for a receipt so I know they have received the mail.
    I have running mail version 1.3.11
    Thank you.

    is there a Universal feature which, regardless of recipients mail app,
    that will allow the ability of the sender to be notified when mail is read?
    There isn't any email client that provides a read receipt without the recipient's knowledge when requested by the sender of a message and you wouldn't want to use an email client that does so. I certainly wouldn't and if there was an email client that did so, a spammer could request a read receipt and if a spam message received on such an email client was opened/read, the recipient would be alerting the spammer that his/her email address is valid causing even more spam to be received.
    This is a basic outlook feature?
    As with other email clients that support requesting a read receipt for sent messages and providing a read receipt when opening a received message that includes a read receipt request by the sender, Outlook includes 3 settings.
    Provide a read receipt when opening all messages that include a read receipt request.
    Don't provide a read receipt when opening any message that includes a read receipt request.
    Be prompted when opening any message that includes a read receipt request. The prompt is provide it or don't provide it on a per message basis.
    I use Windows Outlook at work and I don't request a read receipt for sent messages nor do I provide a read receipt when opening any message that includes a read receipt request since I consider this an invasion of my privacy.

  • How can I obtain a return receipt using Mail?

    I have never had to use a password as the administrator of my imac. I simply clicked OK without filling it in and it worked just fine. I downloaded Mavericks, and I was asked to enter the password as the administrator. I cannot do so. How do I fix this?

    I'm confused.  Your question has NOTHING to do with the subject title.
    1)  You cannot obtain a return receipt using Mail.  That functionality does not exist.
    2)  If your admin password is blank, then just hit return.  I cannot believe you have NEVER seen an administrator password prompt in normal use of the OS, unless you've only used OS X for an hour total.

  • 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.
