That's true... although I think I'd like to find a way to do it, then present both sides of the argument to the managers involved, then let them decide. Of course, if it can't be done, that makes it all the easier :-) Jon -----Original Message----- From: Susan Harkins [mailto:ssharkins at setel.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 04, 2007 3:57 PM To: 'Discussion of Hardware and Software issues' Subject: Re: [dba-Tech] Blocking read receipts in Outlook 2000 I seldom ask for a read receipt, and when I have, it's been because I was having trouble with an isp -- and just wanting to make sure the message arrived. A few times, I've gotten a rather rude message that lets me know that the recipient doesn't "support" that feature -- which I took to mean that they had the "Never send a response" feature enabled -- which, I admit, annoyed me. You might want to consider the other side of the problem. If you annoy customers/clients by telling them their message isn't important enough to allow them to track it... Well... It's just another insult. Susan H. Jon, I'm using Outlook 2003. Here are the directions for 2003... In Outlook, go to the following screen... Tools|Options Click the E-Mail Options button. Click the Tracking Options button. Click the bullet that says... "Never send a response". Scott Marcus -----Original Message----- From: dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Jon Tydda Sent: Wednesday, April 04, 2007 10:06 AM To: Dba-Tech (E-mail) Subject: [dba-Tech] Blocking read receipts in Outlook 2000 Hi all I've been asked to find out why the options to allow or block sending read receipts from Outlook 2000 are greyed out, and if it's possible to force Outlook to block them. It's bad for business if customers see that we've read an email, and then don't reply to it for 2 days, so what we'd like to do is deny all requests for read receipts. I just can't find how to do it, even after looking on Slipstick and Google... Does anyone have any ideas or experience with this?
