Outlook XP: Autogenerates a "not read" on receipts

Spike \Dislocation\ Jackson · Feb 27, 2004

I have a spammer using "Disposition-Notification-To" and
"Return-Receipt-To:" in their spam. Because I have receipts disabled, it
still sends them a "Not Read" email. Is there anyway to disable this sending
of a not read email? My Outlook is updated.

We lose our hair, our teeth! Our bloom, our

You can always tell who the pioneers are because they have arrows in their
back and are lying face down in the dirt. 

Cards were at first for benefits designed, sent to amuse, not to enslave
the mind. 

When you reread a classic, you do not see more in the book than you did
before you see more in you than there was before. 

The gods sell all things at a fair price. 

To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something
else is the greatest accomplishment. 

Some people grin and bear it others smile and do it.

A frenzied passion for art is a canker that devours everything else. 

Hollywood has gone from Pola to Polaroid. 

In traveling, a man must carry knowledge with him, if he would bring home
knowledge. 

Normal is not something to aspire to, it's something to get away from. 

The search after the great men is the dream of youth, and the most serious
occupation of manhood. 

Some people change their ways when they see the light, others when they
feel the heat. 

In every man's heart there is a secret nerve that answers to the
vibrations of beauty. 

Man is more powerful than matter. 

Applause is the spur of noble minds, the end and aim of weak ones. 

All my concerts had no sounds in them they were completely silent. People
had to make up their own music in their minds! 

They have a right to censure that have a heart to help. 

The most perfect expression of human behavior is a string quartet. 

Advertising is the modern substitute for argument its function is to make
the worse appear the better. 

To stop sinning suddenly. 

Parents have a right to insist that godless evolution not be taught to
their children. 

The condition of an enlightened mind is a surrendered heart.

What version of Outlook do you have? Are you deleting the messages by
emptying your Deleted Items with the messages in question unread? If so,
and if you have Outlook 2002, there is a bug (to be fixed in SP-3) that the
receipts are sent for any unread messages when you empty Deleted Items,
regardless of your setting. A workaround until SP-3 ships is to go to
deleted items, select all the messages (Ctrl-A), mark them as read (Ctrl-Q),
then empty Deleted Items. A read-receipt won't be sent in that case.
