A friend in the land of Oz needs to know how to request a receipt in Outlook Express, as I only use T'bird I don't know. Can anybody tell me, please?

In the menus, go to "Tools > Options", select the Receipts tab and tick the box "Request a read receipt for all sent messages".

But, it will only work if the receiver is set up to respond to the request.

The recipient always has the option as to whether or not to allow a receipt to be sent.
