How to verify mail has been

There are several ways to verify if an email has been sent and received:

  1. Read Receipt: Some email providers, like Gmail, allow you to request a read receipt from the recipient. This will send a notification to your email when the recipient opens the email.
  2. Delivery Reports: Many email providers, including Gmail, Yahoo, and Outlook, offer delivery reports. These reports will show you if the email was delivered to the recipient's inbox or if it was bounced back due to an invalid email address or other issues.
  3. Tracking: Some email providers, like Gmail, offer tracking features that allow you to see if the email was opened, clicked, or forwarded.
  4. BCC (Blind Carbon Copy): You can use BCC to send a copy of the email to yourself, which will allow you to verify that the email was sent and received.
  5. Email Client: If you're using an email client like Microsoft Outlook, you can use the "Sent Items" folder to verify that the email was sent and received.
  6. Email Service Provider: If you're using an email service provider like Mailchimp or Constant Contact, they often offer analytics and tracking features that allow you to verify if the email was sent and received.
