Default return receipt

Milly,

Is there a switch to switch off receipts completely? I hate getting
those receipts and always say no.
Thanks,

Patrick Schmid

Default return receipt

Only read receipts - you cannot control what your mail server does with delivery receipts - Except if you run your own Exchange server, of course eg

Tools-options-email options-tracking options.
