Message tracking add-ons for Outlook Expresshavetheyreadityet
Do you want to know if your email has been read? Has someone read your mail? If you want or need to know if a message you have sent has indeed been read? Then this simple free program is just for you. In order to track if the message has been read you insert a small postage-stamp image into the message before you send it. Provided you don't want to track more than 5 messages per day the stamps are free. The only confusing thing I found when first using the program is that I expected to receive email notification that the message had been read but instead it comes with a browser type report which you access from an icon it creates on the system tray. If you don't want to stamp a message just delete to stamp picture from the message. If you want to suspend message stamping just go the havetheyreadityet console edit tab and select suspend stamping.
