Re: Notification of receipt of e-mail
A way that you may be able to do it is the following:- 1. Go to the Mail menu and choose Preferences. 2. Go to Rules 3. Click Add Rule (button on right). 4. Fill in the following details:- a. Description (something like): Reply to persons name b. Leave as if any of the following conditions are met c. Change to From Contains (then fill in) person's email address d. Change to Reply to message then Click Reply message text. Fill in what you want. e.g. Thanks, your email has been received. I will contact you later if any queries. 5. Click OK. Now when the message comes in the person should automatically get sent a reply. NOTE: This will only work on the message the mail (computer) is received to, and if Apple Mail is open. If the computer is asleep and/or off and Mail is Quit, then the rule won't work. If that person only emails when you're actually at work and Mail is open,..then it should be fine. If they email you outside of hours and Mail is off, then the rule won't work. (Unless you had it on your home computer as well)…. So it's not an exact way to do, as Ronni has mentioned Mail read receipts aren't supported in Apple Mail. (and even in other mail programs in Windows that have it, it can be bypassed and trick the system, so it's not exact there either,…).
