Outlook's delivery and read notifications are only guaranteed to work within an exchange domain that has been configured to allow it. Even then, both sender and recipient must be in the same Exchange system. Any notifications outside that Exchange system is purely optional on the part of the receiving mail system's administrators and email recipient.

I don't think so. I've sent stuff to my home e-mail address from work [and I always ask for a read receipt]. And when I got home & checked my e-mail, there it was, the receipt question. Now we are using exchange 2004 in work and I don't think my ISP is using the same and anyway, we're not on the same domain. |

That's a different feature. And, as stated it's purely optional for the remote mail client to honor that receipt notification request. When you are within an Exchange domain, it's up to the Exchange administrators to allow or deny the Exchange specific read notification functions.
