I've given RFC2298 a quick glance, and I thought about it a few seconds more, and I just don't feel that this is something that users will want to use. I certainly wouldn't. So I'm not going to implement this, but if you (or someone else :-) wants to implement this, it'd be fine by me. (Just to make sure you hadn't already implemented this, I grepped through the sources for "notification", and I see there's a function for inserting a Disposition-Notification-To header, but not much more. When fetching mail, Gnus should probably be parsing these receipts, and marking, er, archived messages as having received notification that they have been received? Or something?) -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen
