I'm trying to set my email gadget so that I can request a read receipt
everytime I send someone an email. (I am always keen to know whether someone
has not yet read my messages, or whether they are just too darn slack to
reply).

I've got outlook2000 and when I do a 'new message' I select options,
tracking options, and the 'request a read receipt for this message' box is
always already checked.  But I have only ever received one 'read receipt'.

Does this mean that my recipients have switched off the thing that sends me
a receipt?  Or am I doing something wrong?
thanks,
Melanie
