Confirm read

[ghost]

Hi, is it possible to send message with "confirm read" flag?

Hi @rafalk2,

It is possible, and quite easy too!

In a mailer's method, simply do something like the following to add any needed headers, including to request a read confirmation:

    public class TestMailer : MailerBase, ITestMailer   
    {      
        public virtual MvcMailMessage Test()
        {
            return Populate(x =>
            {
                x.Subject = "Test";
                x.ViewName = "Test";
                x.MasterName = "_Layout";
                x.Headers.Add("Disposition-Notification-To", "sampleSender@github.com");
                x.Headers.Add("Return-Receipt-To", "sampleSender@github.com");
                x.Headers.Add("X-Confirm-Reading-To", "sampleSender@github.com");
                x.To.Add("testSend@github.com");
            });
        }
    }

I've shown 3 different common read receipt request headers, there may be more, and the other person's email client, server, or provider may not support them all, so don't rely on them too much unless you know the recipient's email client and provider support them!

That's what I need. Thank you!
