Some of my email correspondents have mentioned that they receive
confirmation when one of their emails has ben opened.
I am wondering if this is possible, or if the confirmation is just that
the email has been delivered to a queue somewhere?
Has the function intentionally been omitted from Mac mail?
This is unreliable at best, because many email clients don't support it,
and of those that do, most give the reader a choice as to whether or not
to send a confirmation to the sender.
In short, it's not worth the trouble. The reason you're hearing about it
is likely because Microsoft bullheadedly continues to make the feature
prominent in Outlook on Windows.
