Read acknowledgement return

[Robert Storrs]

I have an email account that supports POP3 but not SMTP,
so I can not send messages back on the account. However,
I received an email asking for a read acknowledgement.
Before I thought I allowed the message to be sent.
However, when Outlook tries to send, it always errors out
and outlook re-tries about every minute.

I would like to kill the return of the acknowledgement,
but can not find any evidence of it - not in any
folders. Is there a way to find this message and delete
it?

I should have mentioned that this is Outlook 2003

You can set the SMTP server of the ISP that provides you Internet Access to
allow you to send e-mail.

If they don't support SMTP either you can disable sending on that account by
going to;
Tools-> Options-> tab Mail Setup-> button Send/Recieve-> button Edit->
select Account-> disable Send items

I know all of this. But how do I stop Outlook from trying
to return the read acknowledge when I have already told
Outlook it was okay to do so before I made these changes.
