SgtGeorge **************END OF ORIGINAL MESSAGE TEXT************** The "[email protected]" does nothing more than what you can already do in Eudora, that is, request that the recipient be prompted to send back an acknowledgement that he/she has actually received the email. In Eudora, you request a return receipt by clicking the "Return Receipt" icon in the menu bar at the top of your composition window. Does the same thing as "[email protected]" in the CC: or BCC: header. Sorry to bother you with the original trivial post. SgtGeorge

Forgot to add that, if one is NOT using Eudora, and his/her "other" email browser doesn't support the Return Receipt tool, "[email protected]", in CC: or BCC:, DOES work! In fact, it works quite well and sends you back a "Proof of Delivery" that is nicely formatted and gives you an email that you can save or print for proof. But, like the "Return Receipt" tool in Eudora, "[email protected]" depends on the recipient clicking to send back the receipt. If he/she chooses "never", "ignore", or whatever, neither Eudora or "[email protected]" will deliver a Return Receipt to you. So, for us Eudora users, "[email protected]" is not necessary at all. In case you've never used it, and want to, the icon at the top looks like a letter (colored kind of yellow, I guess depending on your color settings in Windows), with a green square overlapping the upper left of the envelope. You just click on it before queuing your email. Just be sure you don't activate this tool if you're sending email to a Mailing List!!!!! SgtGeorge At 12:10 AM 04/27/2000, George W.
