Without being disrespectful to someone who doesn't read this list, I believe that certain individuals are sometimes control freaks who feel that the only way to make sure that a person is actually working is to determine when he/she reads his/her mail.

Mike, I understand that, but how do they use them? Do they send them with every 
message or expect you to send them with each message? Sounds a little overkill, 
but I am sure there is a reason.

Thanks,

Actually, I hate them, but my place of employment practically insist on them.  
For me personally, they are useless, and I don't blame Apple for never having 
implemented the feature.  Nevertheless, I am stuck.

Not to turn this into an endless discussion, but I really am curious if people 
really respond to all of these return receipts or is it something that happens 
and they have to take no action. I never respond to these because in nearly 
every case I have to respond to the message, so it would be like replying 
twice. It would seem that if there was sufficient demand, APple would have 
implemented this facility into Mail, but apparently its use is not significant.

Normally, receipt requests aren't important to me, but they are to the 
organization for which I work. I'm afraid that if I don't find something, I'll 
have to do all my mail under Windows which, in my case, is very doable but not 
desirable.

I guess I will need to look for new e-mail clients under Mac OS that work with 
VO and have the receipt request feature.

I suspect my Mail program sends *something* back to the sender sometimes--when I land on 
some messages, it says "Mail has new window," as if it's done some activity

doing this, actually, as I believe it's sending messages to spammers to let them know the 
account's still active for sending spam to...
