  3. Sep 08, 2015  The Mail app doesn't support read receipts. They're not reliable anyway. They may be available in Microsoft Outlook. Note also that recipients can turn off the sending of read receipts, even if the sender tries them, so they're basically worthless.

Read receipts and delivery notifications are available in only some versions of Outlook for Mac, and only when using an Office 365 work or school account, or an Exchange Server account managed by your organization.

‘Read receipt confirming the recipient viewed the message’ turn ON to enable for all outgoing messages. Whether the overall Read Receipt option is on or off, you can change it for individual messages as shown above. Outlook for Mac doesn’t appear to have a matching global Read Receipt setting. Read Receipts on or off? A read receipt confirms that your message was opened. In Outlook, the message recipient can decline to send read receipts. There are other scenarios where read receipts are not sent, such as if the recipient's email program doesn’t support read receipts. There is no way to force a recipient to send a read receipt.

Supported applications include Outlook for Office 365 and Outlook 2019 for Mac version 15.35 (170610) and later (select Outlook > About Outlook to check your version).

Supported accounts. To use this feature, you need an Office 365 work or school account, or an Exchange on-premises account. Select Tools > Accounts to check your account type.

If your answer to any of these questions is yes, the Outlook add-in provides actionable insights to help you stay on top of your tasks and get more done.

This add-in is an extension of your Outlook experience and works within Outlook to help you gain focus time, maintain your work relationships, plan time away from work, and improve your overall work-life balance.

Note

Only you can see your data, see Privacy FAQ for details.

What you might see

In Outlook, open the add-in by selecting the Insights icon in the Outlook Home ribbon. If you are using Outlook on the web, open an email message, select the ellipsis (..) in the top-right corner of your email message, and then select Insights. (For easier access in Outlook on the web, you can pin the Insights Add-in to the quick access pane. See Pin the add-in for details.)

You'll see Insights similar to the following in the right pane in Outlook:

Email read statistics

Applies to: MyAnalytics elements are available in varying levels to users of different Microsoft Office 365 and Microsoft 365 plans. See MyAnalytics plans and environments for details. Also see How do I find my plan?

Insights can tell you how many people have opened your email and the average time they spent reading that email. In general, it informs you about email that you sent to five or more Office 365 users who are internal to your organization. (For more information about which email messages are reported about, see Reporting details.)

After you send an email message, it can take up to 30 minutes before Insights informs you about it. If the email is sent from a delegated mailbox with 'send on behalf' permission, the delegate can see the read statistics.

Insights shows the open rate for the sent email that is open in Outlook. It also groups open rate information for qualifying sent items into a single summary card that you can select and expand to see a more detailed view.

Reporting details

Insights does not display read information about every email that you send, such as in the following circumstances.

Requirement: qualifying messages

Read statistics are shown only for qualifying messages. A qualifying message is an email message that is sent to five or more qualifying recipients. A qualifying recipient is a person who is in the same company as the sender and has a cloud mailbox. Distribution lists are expanded before counting qualifying recipients.

Exceptions to qualifying messages

Insights does not report about email messages in the following categories:

  • Email that was sent from a shared mailbox
  • Email that was sent more than 14 days ago.
  • Email in which the total number of recipients (the sum of all of the recipients in the To:, Cc:, and Bcc: fields) is less than five.
  • Email sent to modern groups. (If users are following the modern group, they are included in the count.)

Open rate

The Insights add-in reports the open rate within 30 minutes of when qualifying email was sent by you, as shown in the following table. Note the following:

  • For open rates lower than the minimum threshold, the threshold value is reported. For example, when 20% of 10 email recipients open the email, Insights displays the open rate as < 25%.

  • If the actual open rate falls between the 'Minimum' and 'Maximum' values shown in the table, then the actual open rate is reported.

  • For open rates higher than the maximum threshold, the threshold value is reported. For example, when 98% of the email recipients open the email, the maximum value in the table will be > 95%.

    Number of recipientsOpen rate reported
    5 - 10Minimum: 25%
    Maximum: 75%
    11 - 20Minimum: 10%
    Maximum: 90%
    > 21Minimum: 5%
    Maximum: 95%

MyAnalytics respects user privacy; this is why approximated values are reported and individual recipient information is not shown. For more details, see the Email read rates. To see who opened an email, use Outlook's request read receipts.

To see read information about sent emails

  1. On the Home ribbon, select the Insights icon. If the Insights panel isn't already open, it opens now.

    Note

    If you see a 'Welcome!' message, select Get started.

  2. On the Insights panel, select one of the following two cards:

    a. In-context email open rate. This card provides read statistics for the sent email that you currently have open in Outlook.

    b. The Track email open rates card. This card provides read statistics for all sent emails.

    The panel in the card that you selected (in either step 2a. or step 2b.) states the email subject line and shows a summary of the open rate, the open rate (sometimes expressed as a percentage), and the number of forwards.

Follow up on your tasks

MyAnalytics can help you follow up on requests you asked of others in email. MyAnalytics will automatically find tasks you requested of others based on your sent mails. For example:

  • 'Can you send me this year's latest report?'
  • 'Everyone, please complete your performance evaluations by the end of the week.'
  • 'Cancel my RSVP for Carrin Patman's lunch scheduled early next week.'

For one or more of these types of requests in your sent email in the last 14 days, you'll see a follow-up summary card in your Outlook Insights panel.

To see your follow-up card

  1. On the Outlook Home ribbon, select the Insights icon.
