The answer is probably "yes", but please explain in a bit more detail exactly what you expect this software to do. Taking a stab in the dark: is it that you want to be notified when a message you send is delivered, or read by the recipient? That sort of thing: 'Delivery Status Notification' comes as a standard feature of sendmail(8) on FreeBSD systems, implemented according to RFC 1894 -- see http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1894.html (Presumably Sendmail will eventually adopt the updated standard from RFC 3464). You generally see the effect of that in 'bounce-o-grammes' where you're notified that some mesage couldn't be correctly delivered. Most Mail User Agents have some sort of support for requesting such notifications. Unfortunately this standard scheme doesn't cover notifying the sender when a message is actually read, rather than just successfully delivered -- some Mail User Agents have extended the scheme to show that sort of thing, but to ensure success you'ld have to be sending the message to someone using a similar MUA.
