Windows Live Mail 2011 - read receipt

[HantsDave]

How do you request message read receipt? Can't find it in the ribbon for 'Inbox' or 'Send' options. Seems like a lot of tools have gone!

Hi,

I don't think there is a default option for it but it is selectable when creating a new e-mail

When writing a new e-mail, click the 'Dilevery' dropdown and check the Read receipt box

I have a friend with windows 7 and windows live mail. And I cannot see the ribbon anywhere. What is wrong?

Can't see Ribbon win WLM

A friend of mine has Windows 7 and WLM. I cannot find the Ribbons anywhere for him which would be most helpful, because he is legally blind and any help like a ribbon would be most wecome for him. It works fine on my own WLM.
