Checking the Status of Sent E-Mail

If the receiver’s e-mail system enables status tracking, you can receive status information about the items you send. The Properties window lets you check the status of any item you've sent. For example, you can see when an item was delivered and when the recipient opened or deleted the item. If a recipient accepted or declined an appointment and included a comment, you see the comment in the Properties window. You also see if a recipient marked a task completed.

The Properties window also shows information about items you receive. You can see who else received the item (except for blind copy recipients), the size and creation date of attached files, and more.
