Acknowledgement of receipt Two variables can be used to manage the acknowledgement of receipt of an Email: Email.ConfimationReading and Email.AcknowledgeReceipt. Some email software only recognize Email.DispositionNotification, other recognize both variables and perform specific operations according to the variable used. Email.DispositionNotification is the most recognized variable while Email.ReturnReceipt is less and less recognized. To remain compatible with the email software that use the second variable, the 2 variables are kept and differentiated. We recommend that you use these two variables (the main variable being Email.DispositionNotification). Variables of the email structure that belong to the email header When reading the header of the email, the email structure is automatically updated according to the content of the message header.
The following variables are empty: - Email.Message
- Email.Attach
