Does google mail have read receipt

Yes, Google Mail (Gmail) does have a feature called "Read Receipt" that allows you to request a read receipt from the recipient. Here's how to use it:

Requesting a Read Receipt:

  1. Compose a new email or reply to an existing one.
  2. Click on the three vertical dots at the bottom of the compose window.
  3. Select "Request read receipt" from the dropdown menu.
  4. The recipient will receive a notification that you've requested a read receipt.
  5. When the recipient opens the email, they'll be prompted to confirm that they've read it.

Note: The recipient can choose to decline the read receipt request, and you'll receive a notification indicating that they've declined.

Read Receipt Options:

Gmail offers two read receipt options:

  1. Request read receipt: This option sends a notification to the recipient when they open the email.
  2. Request read receipt and delivery report: This option sends a notification to the recipient when they open the email and also provides a delivery report, which indicates whether the email was delivered successfully.

To access these options, follow the same steps as above, and then click on the "Request read receipt" dropdown menu. You'll see the two options listed.

Read Receipt Limitations:

Keep in mind that read receipts are not always reliable, as recipients can decline the request or use a different email client that doesn't support read receipts. Additionally, some email providers may not support read receipts at all.

I hope that helps!
