In general you can't. You can request the recipient send you a receipt when they open your email, but there's no way to force them to do so. If you're using a web interface instead of an email app you might not have that option to begin with.
Why not send the email as HTML. Then insert a transparent 1x1 gif in the email. But, make the gif's src="" attribute point to an asp/aspx page so on the server you can log requests for the image. One problem though... MS Outlook and Express blocks the downloading of images in preview pane by default I think. Cheers and Good Luck Phi?

I know outlook does since I use it at work. Not sure on OE, my copy's set to do html->plaintext conversion before rendering, but IIRC before I found that feature it did load images automatically. Like requesting a receipt though, this is something that might or might not work, and the use of webbugs is considered rude, so I'd view it as an inferior option.

hi i dont know how, but i have seen this type of use. whenever i send e-greeting through Santabanta.com, there i check a option which enable me to know when recipients opened the e-greeting. there must be some way to do that.
