Hey- Is this true if you use the "web mail portal" to access your Exchange server? We set up our people to hit the web mail address so they can get their email without having to VPN in. For the Exchange server entry in the setup, we enter something like https://mail##.abc.institution.org.
Also, there is a preference in the Settings when you log into web mail that lets you turn return receipt on and off. Not sure if that setting would cause the return receipt to be sent, but you might want to check it if your company has web mail available for you. I don't have time to test anything right now. Might be a combination of the two. Or not. Might be the server guys punishing you for having a Mac! ;) Just a thought. -- Kurt D. Schultz Snyder Technical Services, Inc.
