Sending read receipts

How can I change settings to stop my mobile from sending read receipts? I’ve turned it off in outlook (as far as I know), but when using my mobile this does not seem to work. Using intellisync and an E65.
appreciate any advice
E65

I logged into my Office 365 Outlook Web Access/Mail and disabled read receipts too, but believe another poster here commented that iOS devices are ignoring and/or by-passing the setting.
I'll have to see what it does for the Mail app on OS X.
But from what I've read in these forums related to the issue, if the mail.app doesn't support read receipts (which I realize is not a common standard), then why does it send a read receipt when you open/view an e-mail? That doesn't make any sense.
I've always disabled read receipts. I don't let email rule my day. Just because I opened an email doesn't mean I read it and should reply to it in a certain time frame. Your sense of urgency doesn't dictate a priority on my end.
In today's world, senders expect immediate responses, just like they do with text messages. That is ludicrous.
Thanks for letting me ramble. Sure wish there could be a setting or hack for OS X (at the terminal level) to disable this very annoying 'feature'.

How do I add a number to my Send Read Receipts for iMessage

How do i add a number to my Send Read Receipts for iMessage. It says I can add a email just not a number!

My wife, daughter and I have iPhones. We all have iMessage and Send Read Receipts activated. All the messages sent between the three of us are blue except those that my wife sends to me. They are green. Can anyone explain why.

My wife, daughter and I have iPhones with iMessage and Send Read Receipts activated. All the messages sent between the three of us are blue however, when my wife messages me, the message appears in green on her iPhone. Can anyone explain why.

Because some kind of error occured. This is only from her iPhone to your iPhone? Whenever she sends a message to any other iPhone, it is sent as blue? And when anyone else sends you a message from an iPhone, it sends as blue?

Is there a way to stop email from sending read receipts?

Is there a way to stop email from sending read receipts?
Even though my setting in outlook 2010 is "never send read receipts".
Thank you.

as far as i understand iCal it is on the "receivers/subscribers" side to deal with email-updates (and not on the "senders/changers" side):
snippet from my Re: How do you stop receiving notifications about updated calendar events?:
to NOT get email notification about updated events from a shared calendar you subscribed to you have to uncheck "events affect availability" in that calendars "info" (mac os X.7 and X.8: iCal —> calendars dropdown —> right click on the subscribed calendar —> choose "get info" from the context-menu —> uncheck "events affect availability")

"Send Read Receipt" option not available in new 8.0.2 update?

Just updated my iPhone 5s to 8.0.2 and noticed the "Send Read Receipt" option is no longer available under Settings/Messages. Was this feature removed or moved somewhere else? I really don't want people to know when I've read their messages.

It's still there on my phone. Are you signed into iMessages? It's an iMessage only feature. It doesn't work (and never has) with SMS.

Exchange 2013 public folders are sending read receipts for items viewed in public folders

We have Exchange 2013 with public folders. These public folders are used for a large amount of shared contacts. When a user goes into the public folders and double clicks on a contact to view it, Exchange dispatches a read receipt to all users
that are configured as publishing editors to notify them that a certain contact was read. How do I disable this option?

hi again dear.. :)
"At first, I would like to say the
read Receipt is not sent out by the device, it is sent out by the Exchange server. This is how it works and what happens:
1.
E-mail with request for send
receipt is received on the Exchange server;
2.
E-mail is synchronized with Windows Mobile based device using Exchange
ActiveSync;
3.
When e-mail is
read on Windows Mobile based device the read status is synchronized back to the Exchange server;
4.
The Exchange server creates and sends out the
Read Receipt when receiving the Read status update from the device;
The above is how this is implemented and there is no functionality which allows preventing this from occurring on the Mobile device.
It seems that there is an alternative method to disable RR using transport rules. However, it will at the risk of the filtering out other messages
with the same subject.
Towards the third party mobile clients that support RR and DR, you might consider using Flexmail 4.11. It’s impossible to deactivate ActiveSync
RRs in Exchange server 2007/2010."
also
One way to stop read receipts being triggered through client side configuration on the mobile is to use the option "Don't Mark Read on server".
I have tested this successfully using this option in the TouchDown mail client on Android.
Not sure if the standard or other mail clients do support this option, TouchDown certainly does and it works.
The side effect obviously is, that the read status isn't synced back to Exchange anymore:"
hope now i r clear... one way or the other... you need to send a feed back or define a transport rule... but that again may create problem with the same subject :)

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

Device sends READ and DELIVERY receipts when not programmed to do so.

My Blackberry Curve sends read and delivery receipts to the email sender and to my email. Many times I don't even open the message. In my BB email options, I have NO marked on confirm delivery, confirm read and send read receipts. Does anyone know how to make these stop sending?

sounds this resource is protected by basic authentication??
workaround is to retrieve (for designtime) the wsdl from a browser and save it locally .. and create the plnk on top of it .. during runtime
you need to specify properties on the plnk binding in bpel.xml
httpUsername
httpPassword
all given that your resource is indeed protected by basic authentication ..

Read-receipt of mail

how do I get the read-receipt of mail

You don't. Mail doesn't support read receipts.
You can add them to every email you send by editing the default headers:
http://email.about.com/od/macosxmailtips/qt/et_request_recp.htm
Note that is an all or nothing modification. You can pick which messages send read receipt requests.
You can always just ask in the body of the email for the recipient to please respond as their activities are very important for you to monitor.

How Request Read Receipts in Mac OS X Mail?

That used to work to send read receipts, but I don't know if it still does. The failures the OP posted indicate a malformed command, not that it won't still work.

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?

About Read Receipt

When I send emails from my 8310 through BIS, other people will see a message that "The message sender has requested a response to indicate that you have read this message. Would you like to send a receipt"
I want to disable my email accompanying with such request. I go to
menu->options->email settings; then I set
confirm delivery: Yes
confirm read: no
send read receipts: no
But other people still see this annoying message.
Does anybody know how to disable it? Thanks!

Check the settings on your Carrier's BIS site or by using the (Personal) Email Setup icon on your device.
With AT&T, these are turned on by default when you set up a new BIS account, and for some reason are not necesarily turned off when you turn off the option on the device. The same holds true with the "Sent from my AT&T BlackBerry" signature!

Many thanks!!

Your company BES policy is not allowing to disable these. Ask assistance of your BES administrator to help you out.

Turn off read receipts on OS X 10.9.4

I turned them off on my phone, however they're still active on my computer. What can I do to turn them off? I tried Messages > Preferences... but came up with nothing

You're on the right track, it's Messages > Preferences, then Accounts > [your iMessage account]. Then there should be a check box for Send read receipts.

Not Read Receipts Since Office 2013 Upgrade

Hi,
We have just upgrade to Office 2013, form Office 2007. and we appear to be having some issues with Read Receipts, if we ask for a read receipt on a mail, as soon as the mail is sent we receive a not read receipt as shown below.
"Your message
To: Ian Hart
Subject: RE: Consignment No.
Sent: 24/04/2015 12:01
was deleted without being read on 24/04/2015 12:01."
I know that the mail are being received as I have sent a test mail from my work outlook 2013, to my own outlook.com and it was received fine although I did receive a not Read receipt on my work outlook.
if we resend a message with read receipts we do not get a not read receipt, could any one make any suggestions
1.) Mail Accounts are Microsoft Exchange
I have looked into this further and the issue seams to be with the Read Receipts.
I have sent an email with a Delivery Receipt and that delivers fine and I get a Receipt
I have sent a mail with only a read receipt and I get a not read receipt as shown in the post.
In not sure if the error is accruing because we are sending to email accounts/ exchanges that have had the read receipt function disabled or if it is a problem full stop.
Best Regards
Mark

Hi Mark,
A read receipt informs you that your message has been opened. However, do not rely solely on these receipts. In Microsoft Outlook, the message recipient has the option to decline to send read receipts. There are other scenarios where read receipts are not
sent, including if the recipient's e-mail program does not support read receipts.
I recommend you refer to the following article to troubleshoot the issue:
Track email with read receipts
