Delivery Receipts on Public folder

F

Fi

I use Outlook 2003 on Exchange 2003.

I have a public folder that I have "send as rights" switched on so I can
send from the public folder address rather than my profile address.

However I would like to use delivery receipts and read receipts on emails
sent from the public folder. On testing, the public folder received the read
receipt but not a delivery receipt.
Does this mean the read recipt supercedes the delivery receipt?
Or are public folders not capable of receiving delivery receipts?

Or the server you are testing against doesn't support delivery receipts
(very likely with today's spam level).

I did test against it against my own profile as in it was sent from my email
account and it produced delivery and read receipts back to my email account.
So I assume that would suggest that the Exchange server does support delivery
receipts. Is it common for public folders to treat such tracking requests
differently as you mentioned its common in this day of Spam?

Exchange does support delivery receipts but your admin could have turned it
off for spamming reasons. Public Folders behave in the way that they have
been configured.
