It should be noted that Return-Receipt-To has been officially deprecated
by the IETF. Don't count on any MTA supporting this facility in the
future. One of the IETF working groups (NOTARY?) is working on providing
a (more useful) replacement using a mixture of MIME and ESMTP. The NOTARY
mail archives are a good starting point if you want more information on
this.
