Is Anyone Reading My Emails?

November 14, 2011

Do you ever wonder if people actually open your email? Here’s a way to confirm that your email has been delivered and to be informed of when an email is opened by the recipient.

1. Start a new email and type your email message.
2. Before you send your email, go to the Options tab. In the Tracking section, check the box for “Request a Delivery Receipt” to get an email, confirming that the email was sent. Check “Request a Read Receipt” to be informed when the recipient opens the email.
3. Click Close.
4. Now hit Send.
5. You will receive an email message when the email is delivered or a message when the recipient has read the email (or both, if you checked both options.)
