Right? Matthieu Moy pointed me to the following entry in the changelog: 2002-01-05 Simon Josefsson (snip) (message-insert-disposition-notification-to): New function. According to the manual, this is: *Disposition Notifications - RFC 2298* Message Mode is able to request notifications from the receiver. (and) `C-c M-n' Insert a request for a disposition notification. (`message-insert-disposition-notification-to'). This means that if the recipient support RFC 2298 she might send you a notification that she received the message. Disposition-Notification-To, according to RFC 2298, is implemented by inserting a standard RFC822 header into the message. It is therefore the responsibility of the MUA. Conversely, according to [0], DSN can be requested from sendmail either in a commandline argument or in the SMTP conversation. I don't think it can be activated by inserting a header -- DSN is invoked at the mail transport level, not by the message content. =2D-Joe [0] http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/sm8.8.new.html --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Processed by Mailcrypt 3.5.6 and Gnu Privacy Guard iD8DBQE8xtquIV4b0vah+jcRApvFAJ4zxzHZPPybFsTGeql0IYqiZX8k6gCfadAt sl17P7iMK87qkug2J2sB4q4= =26yi -----END PGP MESSAGE----- --=-=-=--
