A lot of e-mail programs allow you to require the receiver to acknowledge receipt.
If they open the e-mail it will bring up a message box that they can click and you will get an e-mail back letting you know that they opened it (whether or not they actually read it is another matter).

Yes, some mail programs allow you to request a "read receipt" - but you need to turn that option on _before_ sending the mail in question. Also, there is nothing forcing the user to send a receipt - it's nothing more than a request, so it's not guaranteed.

You can ask to have a "read notice".. I know some pop3 programs allow that.. not sure about email hosts though.

Think. How could you possibly know if someone read an incoming e-mail. You can't even be sure if a particular person got it if you accidentally hit the wrong addressee.

I believe aol offers that, or did back when I used it. there are a couple of paid programs that will do it, but of course, you gotta pay..one is didtheyreadityet.com and it has a trail time of so many emails. you could check that out.

Usually not for web mail, but you can with POP3 mail, for example mail to people that use Outlook or Outlook express.

Not unless the reader replies to your message.
