Dilema
« on: September 15, 2011, 03:10:02 PM »
O.K. I know I'm a control freak and all that.................
BUT
Nobody ever sends me a "read receipt" to my e-mails. (well except Julian and Hawi)
I always tick the "request read receipt" option. When no reply comes I get annoyed and frustrated not knowing if my message has arrived or been dumped in the spam box.

Sometimes I send really important e-mails out regarding grading and things like courses. When I do this I tick the "require read receipt" box and ALSO ask in the e-mail if people have received and can download the documents.
I need to know if the instructors of other clubs have received the paperwork and that everything is O.K. for the grading.
But, nobody bothers to even hit the e-mail received button let alone respond.

Is it me ?
What is the internet protocol for things like this ?
What should I do ?
Should I phone them?

Just ask at the next grading session and kick their ass if they received it and didn't respond... or warn them in the emails that if they don't respond they won't be allowed to submit students for grading and don't allow anyone from their clubs to grade that time....

the "notify sender" box never appears in my email account Moley.  I've tried a few times to find where the read receipt lives but without success  :(
