Confirmation of receipt

Is it possible with Mail to get an acknowledgement that the recipient got the mail I've sent? In other systems there's a button you can klick on when you wish such a confirmation?

Thanks for an answer!

In German:

Kann mir jemand sagen, ob es in Mail keine Möglichkeit gibt einen Sendebericht anzufordern oder bin ich zu blöd diese Funktion zu finden? Ich kann mir gar nicht vorstellen, dass das nicht möglich sein soll?

Vielen Dank schon mal für eine Antwort!

Wilkommen zu Apple Discussions!

Nein. Aber nicht alle Post Leser haben support für dass. Ich spreche ein bischen Deutsch.

LAN based e-mail programs such as Lotus Notes which are available for the Mac do have return receipt.

The Mail application does not include a message delivery or read receipt request nor does it provide a read receipt request without your knowledge. You can request a read receipt for all sent messages but if a recipient's email client supports this, the recipient will also have the ability to turn if off. I use Windows Outlook on a Windows PC at work and I don't request a read receipt nor do I provide a read receipt when requested by the sender of a message.

Via the Terminal, you can have Mail request a read receipt for all sent messages.
