Ok, if you are using outlook or outlook express or another email program on your computer, you have an option to turn receipts on.
to do this, start a new mail message in outlook, click on options, this will open a "message options" window, check the box next to request a read receipt for this message. Once the person reads the message you will be notified.
I do not believe that hotmail or yahoo offer these features, but you can have outlook manage your email from these accounts and then turn on receipts. Hope this helps

outlook and I believe express will allow tracking, by sending a read receipt. some other mail clients will also. There is also a company for a fee will track it very well. I am not sure of the name . . .something like postagestamp.com.

Although there are some "return receipt" functions provided by E-mail software, none of them is really reliable. (I assume you know that it is trivially easy to forge E-mail headers, like "From: ".)
Really the best way is either to ask for a reply, or telephone the person and ask them.

If you have AOL and they have it , you can verify if it was read. Another way is to send them an e-card -like from hallmark. There's a box to check if you want to be notified when your card gets read .Then you will receive an e-mail saying the card was read .

if you're on AOL click on sent mail, then right click an email you want to see, click status, it will tell you if it was read, not yet read or deleted.

If your email program has "return reciept" option, use it, you will get a generic email back saying your email has been read.
