No delivery reciept!

[JMI]

Hello,

I sent an email with "Request a delivery receipt for this message"
selected.two days ago and I haven't gotten anything back. Nothing at all
saying that it was either delivered or "not delievered".

What might that mean?

Thanks,

Jeff

Delivery receipts are sent by the server. If the server does not support
sending receipts, you will not get one.

Nothing in the SMTP standards state that receipts of any kind MUST be
honored. The remote server does not honor delivery receipts.
