mail delivery and read reports

I like Opera mail very much, but sometimes when I send valuable messages I need receive confirmation messages, e.g. sent, delivery and read reports. In this cases I have to use another mail clients like MS Outlook, Outlook Express or Windows Mail. Is it possible to use these options in Opera mail or may be somebody knows any Opera plug-in(s) for this purpose? If these options will be available in Opera then it will be the best and the fastest mail client in the world !!! Please help me ASAP.

Unfortunately, no possibility. Like you i miss this feature.

I believe the function of receipt is specific to MS's email programs.

Not only MS email clients - e.g. Pegasus Mail and Mail Commander has these features enabled!

Please search before posting.

Read This earlier thread from 2004 (there are many more recent threads too) and read this blog article Useless: Return Receipt and Autoreply

What you actually need to know is not just that the mail arrived in someone's inbox, you need to know that the person it was intended for has read it and understood it, so ask for a reply in the body of your message.

I did such search before hand and and read both articles. But I don't agree with both threads, that's why I've decided to approach for help to opera community. Nevertheless thank you for your very important advice.

Yes, this is the best approach.

Only my opinion, but, this is never going to happen in Opera.
