    Delivery Status Notification

    Locked

    by stergios_nik ·

    Hello.

    I use Outlook Express 6.0 and I want to enable Deliver Status Notification.

    For example, when I send an email I want to know whether the message was delivered to the mail server.

    I looked at Outlook Express 6.0 but I could not find any option. I found the “Request a Receipt for all Sent messages” option but this option does not solve my problem.

    I noticed that his “Delivery Status Notification” option is available in Outlook Web Access 5.5 but I can not find this option in Outlook Express.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you in advance.

      Hello…

      I don’t know of any way to get notification to Outlook Express except via the “Read Receipt” feature. And, this feature is something that requires the cooperation of the recipient. S/he can block sending the read receipt if s/he chooses.

      With conventional Internet Email and Outlook Express, there is no way to get foolproof notification of delivery and/or reading.

      Sorry…

      Delivery status notification has to be set from the server side, to tell you if you mail was recieved without the recpient sending you a reciept.
