The delivery receipt indicates that mail server has accepted the email you
sent.
There read receipt is a little tougher as "read" can have a lot of meanings.
Lets say I send you an email with a read receipt. You look at it in the
preview pane and then delete it. You then empty your deleted folders. I will
get an email that says Not Read. Now the truth is I did read it but after I
deleted it.

You can see its not something to base your email life on.

Subject: Question about Email Notification

Both of these options in Exchange 5.5 are very vague.  What is the true
definition of these two options and is it truly a confirmation that the
recipient "Read" or "Received" the email.

I have heard different stories from both Microsoft and other Exchange
Admins.  Whats your hearsay on this?
