How do I get a read receipt?

Am I able to get a read receipt when an email I sent is read?

• I would like to get a read receipt for emails I send. Can I do this...

• Answer:

  It doesn't work with Yahoo Mail Classic or New Yahoo Mail. Mail plus is needed for pop forwarding to use with outlook and other mail progs which have the read receipt option, but it costs 19.99$ a year for US accounts (free for UK accounts). Note: even when using mail plus or any of the other mail progs, you do not have the guaranty that you get a read receipt because a recipient can opt out of sending such notices. Reason behind this: by denying a read receipt, you make sure that spammers don't know whether they hit a real mail address. There is a program called "SpyPig" which could help you get read receipts. But it only works if both sender and receiver allow html-mail. Because in html-mail you can include tracking cookies which notify you when an e-mail is opened. It's exactly the kind of program SPAMMERS use, and therefore you should never allow html-mail...
