MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / May 2008Can I attach a DELIVERY receipt without the recepient knowing?
Similar question was posed earlier. I don't want my recepient to know that I have attached a delivery reciept, unless he is a computer expert. Even if he has to know, I believe he doesn't have to have any input in order for me to get a delivery receipt. Am I correct? I am not referring to a read receipt here. That would be of course out of the question. That's correct, because servers return delivery receipts, not email clients.

Probably not, but since you didn't actually provide any information with regards to the environment (like Outlook version, server version), I couldn't be 100% sure. Signature-f.h The best you can do is use the "Request a delivery receipt for this message". This will cause the recipients mail server to respond that the message was accepted and delivered to the mailbox you requested. The Read Receipt is optional for the recipient to allow or not.

I would not follow a lint to read an email. Period. If the message isn't on *my* server (where I control egress), it goes unread.
