Based on the header that you have to add in order to request a return
receipt, I would imagine that you could set up a rule to act on incoming
mail if 'Any Header' contains 'Disposition-Notification-To' and have it do
something special, like move it to a box called 'Return Requests' or maybe
flag it or change its category. Then you can just fire off a quick,
boilerplate reply. This isn't as seamless as having the mail program
automatically present you with a button to click, a la Eudora, but it should
work (shouldn't it???)...
