Mail doesn't provide a way to request read receipts. Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner. Mail Feedback. Read Receipts. Read Receipts (2). The message was sent to my wife's accounts, which she received using her Mac. I also sent to my own Mac to also test. When it went to my own Mac, it was on the same Mac that sent the e-mail via Outlook Web Access. The read receipt and delivery receipt were delivered to my work e-mail account whcih I could see using Outlook Web Access. The latest surprise release of Outlook for Mac 15.3 is largely what you'd hope to get in an Outlook refresh: At long last, a version that looks and works almost identically to the Windows version. Read Receipt In Outlook For Mac Outlook 2016 Read Receipt Tracking Microsoft has announced that Outlook 2016 for Mac will soon get four of the top ten features most requested by its users, including email templates, delivery receipts, and a new 'Send Later' option. I work with MS Outlook 2011 for Mac with OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 and if I require receipts, I send e-mail with OWA (Outlook Web Access) available with my Exchange account and there is the check box selected for receive receipts, so I have the confirmation in my MS Outlook 2011 inbox for the email sent with OWA.

For some emails I manually set the option “Request a Read Receipt” and for some contacts I always request a Read Receipt via a message rule.

I’ve tested this myself and it worked as expected but I hardly receive a Read Receipt from other people. How can this be?

There are quite a couple of reasons for this to happen. Let me sum up a few for you and see if it applies to your situation.

  • First of all; it’s a request. The receiver can have its reasons and choose not to send you a receipt.
  • The receiver has the Receipts feature turned off.
    For Outlook this can be configured in:
    • Outlook 2007 and previous
      Tools-> Options-> E-mail Options…-> Tracking Options…
    • Outlook 2010, Outlook 2013 and Outlook 2016
      File-> Options-> Mail-> section: Tracking
  • The request to send a Read Receipt is made when the message is being marked as read. If the receiver has the habit of not marking all his/her messages as read when reading it, then the prompt was never triggered to send the receipt to you.
  • The mail client the receiver uses must support sending out Read Receipts. Not all clients do, especially web clients often don’t offer this feature.
  • Even when the receiver sends out the Read Receipt, it could be that the mail server of the receiver doesn’t support it or disallows it to be forwarded to the Internet (configurable in Exchange by your mail administrator) and drops the Read Receipt.
    Most ISPs do support sending out Read Receipts though but do not support Delivery Receipts. This is to prevent spammers from determining if a mailbox exists or not.
  • Your own ISP could be dropping the Read Receipts. Usually this is part of a Junk E-mail filter that they have in place and in most cases your ISP will put it in your Junk E-mail folder on the server so that Outlook won’t download it (in case of POP3). Login to your web based mailbox provided by your ISP and see if it is there and if you can configure the server based Junk E-mail filter.


Requesting a Read Receipt for a message can be done on the Options tab.

Note: Keep in mind that from a practical point of view, a Read Receipt is nothing more than an acknowledgement that the email you have sent to the receiver got marked as read. The receiver can do this without actually reading the message

MS says no way...

It's a really feeble protocol, and good that Entourage or Outlook does not (pretend to) implement it. The fact that Outlook for Windows implements it is an indication that the Windows developers, unlike the MacBU, seem to think that everybody else in the world uses Outlook for Windows, which they don't.


Possibly...

There are some third party options you can try.
