Re: [Evolution] Return receipts

2001-11-14 Thread Nigel Metheringham 

The discussion on this thread has already shown one form of
return-receipt I have never seen before, and passingly gone past the 2
other versions I do know about

To take these in turn:-

  1. Return-Receipt-To: addr
 Sends a receipt to the address specified.  Great for using
 on mail to large mailing lists with a 3rd (disliked) party
 address in the header.   Implemented in old sendmail's
 and maybe even in old RFCs.
 Implementation of return function is in MTA on final delivery
 Very strongly deprecated nowadays - and finding MTAs that
 support it is now pretty hard.

  2. DSNs
 There are RFCs for these (several I think).
 Complex, return function can be either MTA or MUA,
 also used in some cases for bounces.
 Generally the best but most complex to implement.
 Need options to allow/disallow/ask about replying.

  3. X-Return-Receipt-Requested: true
 Microsoft's answer.  Has same privacy implications as
 others, but at least avoids some of the 3rd party problem
 of the original Return-Receipt-To:

Dan makes some really good points about implementation issues.

Nigel.

Is it possible to request return receipts to mail in Evolution? I can't
find a seting anywhere and have seen nothing on the subject in the
archives...would be nice. :-)

No, Evolution doesn't support return receipts. It's probably already
filed in the bug/feature tracker though (bugzilla.ximian.com).

If you find that not to be the case, feel free to add it (I'm 99% sure
it's already there though).

Is there a patch waiting for post-1.0?  It's just an X-header, iirc.

Nope. We'll be happy to take one, though.
