I just want to know if a email that I sent has been opened and read? I sent it with the a Delivery Status Notification and a Return Receipt attached to it and I never got any notification.. I know the person who I sent it to has to approve the email and if they ignore it I wont get anything... So I am just wondering if there is a way I can check to see if it was delivered and opened.?

You might need professional help. Mailing services typically use a variety of content embedded in the message to track what recipients do. For example, each image retrieved into the message is logged so you know when/how it was viewed; each link the recipient clicks is tracked. Etc.
