Read receipts

[Bobcat]

Can you get a read receipt without asking the receipant if
they want to send a read receipt?

 

[Roady [MVP]]

No, read receipts a recipient controlled.

Use both Outlook 2000 and 2003. Didn't know '03 would ask my recipients if they wanted to reply. 2000 doesn't. Very embarrassing. Why the change
Same problem with signatures. 2000 was a one-click 'insert' and now the closest I get is either a signature that shows up on every new email (which I have to turn off) or an auto-format signature that I can't edit. Any suggestions?

The change was because it's a privacy violation to tell a sender that a
message has been read (or deleted) without the recipient's approval. Would
you like all spammers to know when you've read a message?
