Outlook plugin for letting people know that you read an email
Hello,
I am working in a digital marketing agency.
Is there an Outlook plugin for letting people know that you read an email (suppose we all use it)?
I know there is already the like button, but this is not enough for us, we want something like a pop up or a window that notifies us about the readed email.
Thanks.

Hi ZeroSama,
as far as i know, there isn't a specific Outlook plugin designed for this purpose, but you can use (or try to use) some workarounds:Read Receipts: this option in Outlook allows you to request a notification when the recipient reads your email. You can enable this feature on a per-email basis by going to the "Options" tab in the compose window and selecting "Request a Read Receipt." The disadvantage is that recipients have the option to ignore or decline the read receipt request.
Add and request read receipts and delivery notifications - Microsoft SupportThird-Party Plugins: Several third-party plugins offer enhanced read receipt functionalities beyond what Outlook provides. These plugins can provide features like read notifications, email tracking, ... Recommendations are:
