Delivery Options

When you create a message you can specify delivery options by clicking Delivery Options.

Option
Explanation
Delivery Report
Choose how you want to confirm delivery of a message:
  • Only on failure -- send a report only if the message cannot be delivered.
  • Confirm delivery -- send a report whether your message was delivered or not. You can use this for a "return receipt."
  • Trace entire path -- send a report from each server through which the message is routed, and a final report indicating whether the message was delivered.
  • None -- do not send a delivery report.
Delivery Priority
Choose one:
  • High -- Route the message immediately.
  • Normal -- Route the message the next time your mail server sends mail (default).
  • Low -- Wait until off-peak hours to route the message. (usually between midnight and 6:00 AM). If you use a modem or wide area network, this option can reduce the telephone charges.
Sign
Digitally sign a message.

Note This overrides your Mail security option preference for this message only.
Encrypt
Encrypt the message.

Note This overrides your Mail security option preference for this message only.
Return Receipt
You receive a message that confirms the recipient has opened the message.

Note This option works only if the recipient opens your message using IBM(R) Lotus(R) iNotesTM or Lotus Notes(R).
Keep Private
Prevents a Lotus Notes or iNotes mail user from forwarding, replying to, copying into a new document, or printing this message.

Note This does not prevent a users from selecting the text and copying it, or from using a screen capture utility.

Note If the Sign and Encrypt options are not available, see your administrator.
