How to Check if an Email Was Delivered

When a new email message is composed and sent, the sender will usually only receive notification if the email is not delivered. In these situations, the person will get a message saying that the email address they sent the message to either does not exist or rejected the message. However, email users do not receive confirmation that a person has received and opened their message. With Confirmeo, a free email utility, you can receive notification when one of your sent emails is delivered and read.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

1. Open your email client and compose a new message, addressing it as you normally would.

2. Add ".confirmeo.com" to the end of the intended recipient's email address. For example, if writing a message to [e-mail], the address would become [e-mail].

3. Send the message to the edited email address.

4. Look for a confirmation email from Confirmeo, which will be sent once the recipient of the original message opens the email.

5. Open the confirmation email to find out when the recipient read the message.
