Is that so? 

Actually this feature is quite important for me. The rational is that there 
were cases in the past where users who claimed that they did not receive an 
important mail, where it was actually they did not open the email (ignore) 
and simply put the blame on the email system. 

This is the time when the system admins need to defend themselves (and the 
system). Such mail log could be crucial for them. If the mail log only shows 
delivery receipt for the virtual email then there will be room for argument 
such as:-

- Does the mail really delivered to the mailbox? 

- Does the user already in the virtual list at the time of mail delivery as  
mail admin could be at fault as he maybe forgot to include the email user into 
the virtual list and only add them later when dispute arises to cover his 
fault.

I hope there will be solution to this matter.
