This does not seem to work when emails transfer to a data file. Its still sends a receipt even though I turned it off.

I suggest that “Read Receipts” have become archaic and are actually a throw back to the cave people days when covering one’s derriere was of utmost importance. A Question. Does the fact that I opened your e-mail, at which time a “READ” receipt is generated and sent back to you, actually indicate that I have READ your e-mail? Where is the special button that sends the message to the sender that says “Hi there. Not only did I read your e-mail, I understood your e-mail too.”

having the option to request read receipts is fair, but not requestign for all messages. It takes away your right to know who else is requesting read receipts.

My question is, why does thsi application prompt the message recipient of whether or not they would like to send a receipt when the sender specifically asks for a receipt, what’s the point of this function and, why not when the message is read by the recipient does the program just not send a receipt without the prompt to the recipient?

Where is the option to disable this ‘feature’?

Anyone? Anyone? Thanks!!!
