Title: Disabling RR functionality

Read receipts are a client function.  They are email messages.  Exchange just delievers them.

Freeware to stop them:

My boss just asked me if there is a way to disable Read Receipts from going through the IMC on our Exchange 5.5 server. Specifically if an external e-mail comes in with a request for a Read Receipt, is there a way to suppress the automatic response to this in Outlook or at the Exchange server?

I know how to do it client side if the client has the Internet Mail service installed. But none of our workstations need this, so the feature is disabled. I have also looked at the Disable Automatic Replies to the Internet feature on the IMC, and ours is checked. I would think this would suppress the Read Receipt replies, but it doesn't.

Any thoughts?

TIA
