Then tell them their only option is to buy Exchange Server and Outlook for everyone - but explain that this 'feature' *still* will not work for recipients that are outside of your control (ie, it will only work for local recipients - and I *think* it is possible to set up Trusts with other external Exchange Servers, but not sure, and if it does, it requires the explicit cooperation of the other systems admin).
Bottom line: do NOT promise the impossible to a client just to win the business. It is a losing proposition, as you are beginning to see...
We run small ISP selling mail accounts to customers. *our customers* want to voluntarily tell senders when they have downloaded an email via POP. and the sender for sure wants this too for every single message? i doubt not
I'm not sure why this is so hard to believe. There is literally a class of customers that have a specification which says that there must be a notification sent back to the sender whenever they download their emails. I cannot currently bid for their business.
A spec is a spec - either you can meet the spec or you can't bid for the business...
