Request Read Receipts in Mac OS X Mail

To make Mac OS X Mail request a read receipt for every message you send:

  • Open Terminal.
  • Type "defaults read com.apple.mail UserHeaders".
  • Press Enter.
  • If that command returns "The domain/default pair of (com.apple.mail, UserHeaders) does not exist":
    • Type
      • defaults write com.apple.mail UserHeaders '{"Disposition-Notification-To" = "Name <email@address>"; }'
      replacing Name with your name and email@address with your email address.
      • The complete line could read "defaults write com.apple.mail UserHeaders '{"Disposition-Notification-To" = "Heinz Tschabitscher <[email protected]>"; }'", for example.
  • If the "defaults read" command above returns a line of values that starts with "{" and ends in "}":
    • Highlight the entire line. It might read something like {Bcc = "[email protected]"; }, for example.
    • Press Command-C.
    • Type "defaults write com.apple.mail UserHeaders '" (excluding the outer quotation marks).
    • Press Command-V.
    • Type "'".
    • Insert '"Disposition-Notification-To" = "Name <email@address>"; ' in front of the closing "}" character, replacing Name with your name and email@address with your email address.
      The line might now read, for example.
  • Press Enter.
