    Windows 8.1 mail receipts

    Hello Guys/Gurls.

    I have a question about Windows Mail on Windows 8.1 how is it possible to see the delivery receipt on incoming mails i.e. in order to check it's origins. The reason I am asking this is a friend of mine believes he's receiving malicious mails and he needs to know whether he can trust the senders authenticity.

    Thanks
    ZL

    I've tried from the Mail app (on Windows 8.1) and the option you said doesn't seem to appear, my work around is to sign on to Hotmail.co.uk to see the delivery information.

    Thanks
