Why are my Yahoo attachments opened in Outlook Express?

Can a "read receipt" message from Outlook Express to a Yahoo address be blocked when opening Yahoo Mail?

  • In other words, the message is sent from Outlook Express to a Yahoo address requesting a "read receipt"; can the Yahoo Mail be opened without sending back the "read receipt"?

  • Answer:

    The request will be ignored because Yahoo Mail doesn't support Return Receipt requests. Besides, "Return Receipts" almost never work. The vast majority of all email software and users in the world do not support Return Receipts. The few that do have usually disabled these by default. In the rare case that you send mail to someone who can support Return Receipts, they get prompted with a rude and intrusive message asking them to tell you that they read your mail, with the default action suggesting they cancel the notification.

It's your choice----you are under no obligation to return, or honor the read receipt. Just click "no" you do not wish to send back the receipt-----the dialog box closes and the mail will be opened.
