[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 558823, member: 24098"] Read receipts are a client-specific feature, not a feature of standard email. As such, they only work if the person you're emailing is using a client that happens to use the same pseudo-standard for read receipts as you. Basically, outside of the realm of corporate email, they are useless. Even in those situations, many administrators disable their use outside of the local network, lest it acknowledge the receipt of spam emails. If you want to try to add this feature in Apple's Mail, check out [URL="http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20050512155856402"]this article[/URL]. Otherwise, you can do it in Entourage, see [URL="http://www.entourage.mvps.org/faq_topic/return_receipt.html"]this article[/URL]. [/QUOTE]
