Sorry for bothering ya'll with the request read receipts, but in a corporate
environment where they play politics you need to know when people read the
e-mail you sent to make sure they know about it. That's why I have it set
to default to request read receipts. Most Professionals will set up their
e-mail client to automatically send the receipt back and don't worry about
it.

Ooohh, mail bombs from the forum! Dan, you have a mean streak! But, I
certainly got a little chuckle from the idea! Maybe with multimegabyte
attachments, too??
No, really, we should all maintain our sanity here. First, we tell them that
we don't like it and how they can configure the client to not send them.
Second... well, I guess I have no second step. I leave that to our fellow
members to suggest. I have my client configured tell me that they are being
requested (probably like you, Dan), but don't send them (but one click
and.....).

> A couple of quick ways to do this is to use the IMAP4 protocol and
retrieve

> C: 100 LOGIN username password
> S: 100 OK LOGIN completed
> C: 200 STATUS inbox (RECENT MESSAGES)
> S: * STATUS inbox (RECENT 0 MESSAGES 46)
> C: 999 LOGOUT
>
> Or to provide a more detailed look at the current state of the mailbox,
you
> can use the following:
> C: 100 LOGIN username password
> S: 100 OK LOGIN completed
> C: 200 examine inbox
> S: * FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft)
> * 46 EXISTS
> * 0 RECENT
> * OK [UNSEEN 11] 5 Messages unseen
> * OK [PERMANENTFLAGS ()]
> * OK [UIDVALIDITY 2340432167] UIDs valid
> 300 OK [READ-ONLY] EXAMINE completed
> C: 999 LOGOUT
>
> Either one will suit your needs and both are quite fast even on large
