HI - thanks for the response. Yes, well maybe my initial approach is a liitle over the top but I just view Read Receipts as an invasion of my privacy and shows a lack of trust, irrspective of whose sending them.



I'd just like some options - whilst I can now see who sending them I'd like the option of applying Rules to the messages if possible.

Given that the Read Receipt attribute is an identifiable Field in Outlook I'd also like to know if this field can be identifed in the message header? The header contains details if the sender requests a Delivery Receipt.... but not a Read Receipt?
Thanks

Did try creating a rule that checks the message header for the text "Disposition-Notification-To" and moves (or rather deletes) if it finds that. Probably won't work on messages sent internally within your company (as opposed to via the Internet) though.

Hi, thanks for the response - yes, I think youre right in that "Disposition-To" does not apply to "company-internal" messsages.

I'm surprised though that the Receipt Requested field cannot be manipulated by Outlook Rules? Cheers

I'll try to remember to mention that to the Outlook team when I'm in Redmond later this month.

Hi there bschorr.... did you manage to run this by the boys and girls at Redmond by any chance?

Best Wishes.... Rick
