I've never noticed that, Kathy. Maybe it's just one of those automatic things from some e-mail servers? I think if anything it's just a way of making sure you got and saw it and that it didn't get lost in cyberspace.
Does it appear along the bottom of e-mails? That's where ads usually are from the e-mail provider, and I don't usually pay attention to that area, but I'll have to keep an eye out to see if it's there.

I would like to know why people send an email into the list with a “Read Receipt” attached. For some reason I cannot explain, this really bothers me and makes me feel Violated. I would really like to know what they do with this receipt or why they need it. To me sending the receipt makes me feel as if I am being monitored for how much I read the emails on the list. I thought this list was supposed to be there to be another support and we can read and write as we please to the list. I am not trying to center one person out here as I get it from quite a few on the list. Are the people asking for the read receipt monitors of this list or not? I don’t mean to offend anyone just checking.
