Hi All, It seems the latest update to Outlook Express has an annoying option that allows the sender of a message to request a Message Received receipt from whoever reads that message! It is extremely annoying feature when used on a group list like this one. After having some really bad and disrespectful thoughts about the sender's heritage whenever having to answer "No" to such a prompt, I was surprised to hear that prompt on a message I had sent to the list! Apologizing to myself for the name-calling, I went on a search for the root cause of this annoying feature. Here is what I found: When using the Windows Update feature from that site, it updated my Outlook Express' Options, adding another panel/tab named "Receipts". That dialog, (accessed with an Alt+T for the Tools menu, then "O" for Options, then Control+Tab to the dialog titled "Receipts"), has two items, which should be set to: Uncheck the "Request a receipt for all sent messages." This will keep you from annoying others, and selecting the option, "Never send a Read Receipt" will keep others from annoying you! How about taking a few minutes to check for these items in your Outlook Express Options so you don't have someone muttering disparaging remarks about your linage!<g> Thanks, Dennis Brown, DB Tech! 770-465-9621 [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Visit the jfw ml web page: http://jfw.cjb.net
