Ask for confirmation of receipt and find out if the e-mail sent has been read. (MS Office Outlook)

A question a visitor wrote the post about a month ago:

How do I know if the person I sent the email opened and read the message. #

The problem can hardly be settled in full with any particular program. uses an invisible .gif inserted in the sent e-mail, and based on that .gif the script behind the system can provide data about the IP, the time and how many times the e-mail sent by us was opened. This method is not 100% effective. There are many email clients and ISPs that block for security reasons or ask the user if he wants downloading images.

Another option that can find out if e-mail has reached the recipient to read and whether it is valid only for e-mails sent from Outlook which are also received on MS Outlook.
