Send a 2nd email to the recipient and ask him if he opened the 1st one.

Yes, its called a read receipt, however its only supported if the other person is using outlook too (and perhaps google mail now, but I think they have their own version)

it is only a request tho so no good if you want to know for "other " reasons.

Yeah, you get a message saying "Do you want to send a read receipt?" unless you have already set it to send them automatically.

Even if you do get a read receipt, it does not mean anyone has actually read your message, just that OE has opened it, which it does by default for the top message with a preview pane.
Report everythings gone green • January 6, 2010 12:49 PM GMT
No one uses the preview pane shurely?

Binned outlook for Thunderbird, I think it is better , thing with return receipts is you always have the option to refuse to let them know you have received it .
Report Dealem.... • January 6, 2010 12:55 PM GMT
