SAME PROBLEM
NO mail client responds to delivery receipts - that is all handled by the mail server, which may or may not recognize delivery receipts. All a mail client can respond to (or not) is a READ receipt.

SAME PROBLEM
And Comcast provides steps to configure Outlook (all versions) on their web pages so saying they don't "support" Outlook is absolutely a cop-out.

However, in most | cases, the configuration for outlook and express are very similar so | you really don't need their support.

The location of options has moved - look | on the options chunk and click the tiny little arrow in the right | corner of it to see the Options dialog. I don't see that it will do | you much good - there is nothing to configure, you either request one | or you don't. | | | | "RichardV" wrote in message | ... || I've had the same problem for quite some time.
