Two parts must operate together for this to work: first, the sender's email must include a request for a "read receipt." Next, the recipient's email reading program must recognize read receipts. Even if this program supports read receipts, the recipient has the option of ignoring them. This means, they're a pretty unreliable way of confirming that someone has read something.
Yahoo! Mail does not support requesting read recipets.
I had to give my dad news he didn't want to hear a few years ago. If you have his physical address, that's probably a better bet.

less than innovations, verify request go back receipt. The recipient can refuse to do it, besides the undeniable fact that the default is to deliver. i have not easily tried this with Yahoo, yet maximum different expenditures have this function.

I don't believe you can know unless you sent him a yahoo card in which it'll tell you that it's been picked up. Why do you need proof that he read it?

Ask him to please let you know when he reads it. Either by phone or return email.
Hope that helps.
Outlook express has a "return receipt" thingy, but I don't think Yahoo does.
