If it's off, I don't think you'll find a solution. For those that have it on, at least you'll "see" them. Another trick that might help, if you're mail server can handle it, is to have a reply-to address like this: bounces-<id>@domain.com Some mail servers can be configured to ignore the '-' and everything after it, letting you receive all your bounces at one address, but knowing by the 'To' field which member it is coming from. I know this doesn't address your problem of being able to see who actually reads the message, but it will help you know who isn't even getting the message to begin with. > > Thanks, > -Ryan A -- Rob
