A Question?

When you send an email on Hotmail or Yahoo is there a way to ask for confirmation that the message has been received?

My friend manages apartments here and would appreciate it if this could be done.

Thanks............June x

I very much doubt it.. But if there is.. It would only work for recipients whos email client has the facility to reply and that person has it turned on.. Thus it wouldnt be a great lot of use as a none arrived notification wouldnt leave the sender any the wiser.

So i dont know if there is.. but if there is then its not much use to your friend .. hows that?

Thanks KP..............I didn't think that it could be done but wandered around trying to find out for her. At least I can give her an answer. Cheers x

You could have a look at How to Request Read Receipt for a Message in Windows Mail or Outlook Express - About Email

However this gives the reader an option to notify you, informing it's read. I'm guessing your friend would rather it be forced rather than optional?
