I have outlook 2002 & have recently started to get some spam which
automatically tries to send a delivery receipt back to the sender. Also,
when I delete the message outlook tells me the sender has asked for a
receipt to be sent to him when the message has been deleted, do I wish to
send, yes or no. So I select no. At least I get asked, unlike the delivery
receipt. (I'm also asked for conformation before sending a read receipt to
anyone who wishes one). Why don't I get asked before sending a delivery
receipt? Is there any way for me to stop this? All e-mail sending &
receiving is done through my Norton internet security to check for viruses,
but the delivery receipt seems to bypass this, getting sent directly through
Outlook. This causes more problems, as the account in question where I'm
sent these e-mails is not my main one, so I'm not connected to the internet
with this account. The ISP rejects the sending of the delivery receipt as
I'm not using them to connect to the internet, sending can only be done when
I am connected through them. Therefore outlook just keeps trying to send the
message & will not stop, even after closing & restarting outlook. The
receipt doesn't show in the outbox (or anywhere else), so I can't stop it or
delete it. The only way for me to get rid of the receipts from outlook, is
to connect by the ISP which the receipt is trying to be sent through, so
letting it be sent, (not in my opinion a good idea). So I prefer to replace
my outlook data file with a backup copy.
Anyone help?
