Accusé de réception mail mac

The "Accusé de réception" (AR) is a feature in macOS that allows you to request a delivery receipt for an email you send. This means that the recipient will receive a notification when they open the email, and you'll receive a confirmation email from their email provider.

Here's how to use Accusé de réception in macOS:

Method 1: Using the Mail app

  1. Open the Mail app on your Mac.
  2. Compose a new email or reply to an existing one.
  3. Click on the "Options" menu at the top of the window.
  4. Select "Request Delivery Receipt" from the dropdown menu.
  5. Enter the recipient's email address in the "To" field.
  6. Click "Send" to send the email.

Method 2: Using the "Read Receipt" feature

  1. Open the Mail app on your Mac.
  2. Compose a new email or reply to an existing one.
  3. Click on the "Read Receipt" button in the toolbar (it looks like a clock).
  4. Select "Request Read Receipt" from the dropdown menu.
  5. Enter the recipient's email address in the "To" field.
  6. Click "Send" to send the email.

When the recipient opens the email, they'll receive a notification asking them to confirm that they've read the email. You'll then receive a confirmation email from their email provider, indicating that they've opened the email.

Note that not all email providers support Accusé de réception, and some may require the recipient to opt-in to receive read receipts. Additionally, some email providers may have specific settings or requirements for enabling read receipts.
