Environment, Exchange 2007 Outlook 2003. I have read so many different things on stopping external read receipts that I'm not sure what is the correct method. How do I prevent responses to external delivery and read receipts?

Hi, For exchange 2007 have a look into this blog : http://blogs.technet.com/b/appssrv/archive/2009/05/29/how-to-suppress-delivery-and-read-receipts-in-exchange-2007.aspxRipu Daman Mina | MCSE 2003 & MCSA Messaging

This one can also help you http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa997857(EXCHG.80).aspx Solution 1: ======== Using Exchange Management Console Via the property page of the default remote domains policy under Organization Configuration > Hub Transport > Remote Domains > Default - Message Formats. Solution 2: ======== Using Exchange Managment Shell cmdlet: Set-RemoteDomain -Identity * DeliveryReportEnabled $false ..............After using above solution restart the Transport service for the change to apply. Having tried the above solution at a few client sites and hitting issues where they dont work, a sure fire way of ensuring read receipts are not sent to external people is to configure FOUR transport rules... Rule 1: From users outside the organization Remove header "X-Confirm-Reading-To" Rule 2: From users outside the organization Remove header "Disposition-Notification-To" Rule 3: From users outside the organization Remove header "Return-Receipt-To" Rule 4: From users outside the organization Remove header "Receipt-Requested-To" Refrence http://www.experts-exchange.com/Software/Server_Software/Email_Servers/Exchange/Q_23535366.html Vinod |CCNA|MCSE 2003 +Messaging|MCTS|ITIL V3|
