Delivery Receipts must be supported by the mail server the message is sent
to. In most cases this has been disabled for privacy/security/anti-spam
reasons.

It is also superfluous status that wastes time on the recieving mail
host. Rather than bothering to send positive feedback everytime someone
sends them e-mail and they accept it, they instead send back negative
feedback if they rejected the e-mail or couldn't deliver it. So the
lack of negative feedback is the positive feedback in trying to use a
DSN.
