With Outlook at work it isn't important for me to like it, or not like it. What is important is that I understand how to best use it and be able to help others do so.

If I can't find out how to omit certain people, like those from the outside, I may just turn off read receipts for everyone who emails to me also.

So what I would like to do is: Ask me if I want to approve the read

longer ask me but either just send him one, or don't.

Personally, I always disable read receipts. If I get a message and want to take my time responding, I don't want to notify the sender that I've gotten it.

Also, as you mention, spammers and marketing emailers sometimes use it to validate email addresses.

As for configuring Outlook, sorry, I don't know. I use it at work, but don't like it at all.

I'm riding 615 miles (Yes, you read that right) in the American Diabetes Association's Tour de Cure to raise money for diabetes research, education, advocacy, and awareness. You can make a tax-deductible donation to my ride by visiting https://mideml.diabetessucks.net.

I may have diabetes, but diabetes doesn't have me!
