    Ok! I trust you will make a good decision.

    Yes, I know there is no standard. Hovever, why don¨t do it like
    xfmail (and
    archimedes?) does it?  It includes every possible header in the mail
    which
    could trigger the reciever to act. If i remember correct it adds the
    following 
    headers to the mail:

    Disposition-Notification-To: tonyk
    X-Confirm-Reading-To: tonyk
    X-Chameleon-Return-To: tonyk
    X-XFmail-Return-To: tonyk
     
    Why not add a "X-Evolution-Return:" header to these and then
    make evolution send responses to these kind of headers? Or why
    just don't use the X-Confirm-Reading: -header?

    Ok. I know that these things seldom works, but sometimes they do
    and when they do, it could be valuable information..;-) 

    But hey, I will not cry if you decide not to add this to evolution.
