Phantom Emails

[PennyO]

I have "read receipts" in my outbox, which I cannot see, but know they are
there, as I went to www.howto-outlook.com/howto/deletereadreceipt.htm and can
see there is one there. However, it won't let me work with it.

Does anyone have another suggestion for getting phantom read receipts out of
my outbox. They are compromising my email sending and I am getting somewhat
frustrated. Please help!

"Won't let you work with it". Uh huh, and that's supposed to mean
something to someone else? So just WHAT does happen when you try to
edit the *copy* of your .pst file that is NOT currently open in
Outlook?

I'm no expert at these tools. Never had to be since they worked the
first time I used them to help someone else get rid of stuck read
receipts (the first tweak that I perform after installing any e-mail
client is to ensure it disables responding to read receipt requests so I
haven't needed to get rid of stuck read receipts in my message store).
Read receipts are hidden by Outlook in the Outbox folder, and Outlook
has problems sending read receipts which gets them stuck in the Outbox
folder (where you can't see them).

If MDBVU32.EXE from Microsoft (with instructions described at
http://www.howto-outlook.com/howto/deletereadreceipt.htm) "won't work
for you" then try another method of getting rid of hidden stuck read
receipts by using Outlookspy (not free but you get a fully functional
1-month trial). See http://www.outlook-tips.net/howto/delete_rr.htm.
