General Tracking
|
You can send tracked email from any computer, on any operating system by simply typing .readverify.com on the end of your recipients email address (they won’t see this). Eg;
Here’s an example of a tracked email to drakecn@yahoo.com:
Tips and information:
Adding .readverify.com uses the tracking based on your sending defaults.
You can use other sending options also if you want to (eg; certified / ensured etc) - see our FAQ: Other sending options regarding this.
If you send a group email, remember that you need to add tracking to ALL recipients, not just some of them.
If you are having trouble adding .readverify.com to your recipients email address, it’s probably because your email client is trying to auto-complete the address for you (eg; trying to copy it from your address book). You can override this by continuing to type in the address over top of the one which was completed for you.
If you regularly send your tracked emails to the same people, and don’t want to type .readverify.com every time, a good way to simplify this is add these people to your address book with the extension already on their email address. That way it’s there when you want it (remember to remove it if you don’t want to track to them).
New plugins are coming!
Note: the plugins we offer are optional – you do not require them to send tracked emails. See general tracking above.
We are currently working on plugins for the following:
- Updates to Outlook / Vista plugin
- Windows 7
- Outlook 2010
- Outlook Express (Windows Live)
- Hotmail (Livemail)
- The new Yahoo (classic and beta)
- Gmail
We will send a newsletter when these new plugins are available.
Future plugin plans are intended for the following:
- Vista operating system with other email clients (Thunderbird etc)
- Macs
