What Sean said. I’d love to pay you $30 for this send later feature in Outlook.

We’re not sure yet. We’ll be evaluating the feature’s usage levels and will set plan permissions accordingly.

You’re right – if you don’t turn on images, it will not generate a read receipt. Right now, there’s no way to enable one, except to enable images.

It’s definitely possible. We do a little bit of black magic to try to make sure that your own opens don’t show up, but the techniques are squarely in the camp of voodoo!

Hi Dario -

Cool idea! I’m not sure if we can build something like that, especially with new compose, but we’ll definitely discuss it!

Hi,

I don’t really get it. How do you get access to the App ?

Would be great to be able to configure the follow up email from within the compose window of the first email.
Going to “Sent” label after composing the message to configure the follow up mail is a bit annoying (specially when you need to do a lots of follow ups)

Comment on 5 Sikuli Pitfalls (and how to avoid them!) by Paul Schlegel

Didn’t know about the setAutoWaitTimeout feature. I’m not sure if that means #5 isn’t correct. It’s more that there’s a more efficient way to do it. I’ve seen several of the regular Sikuli support even using tradition Wait commands specificying seconds.

I do notice that sometimes I get a “mail read” notice shortly after I have opened an email that I sent. Is it possible that my opening the email I sent is triggering a false “read” indication?

Once this feature is out of Beta, will it be available to users with the Personal level subscription, or only to those with the Pro level?

From your explanation above, I’m assuming that people who don’t display external graphic images won’t generate a return receipt.

For such situations, do you also embed a conventional link to allow the email recipients to explicitly send a read receipt?

Thanks!
