12: DSN (Delivery Status Notification)

!

MDN vs. DSN

MDN = Message Disposition Notification

DSN = Delivery Status Notification

MDN: you receive a confirmation that your message
was received by the destination mail server.

DSN: you receive a confirmation that your message was
opened by the person you sent it to (the recipient).

All systems involved in the communication must support
MDN and DSN.

When a mail server with DSN receives a message, it
sends a delivery confirmation to the sender of the
message.

Change this setting to OFF, if you are sending a message
to a mail server that does not support DSN.

If you do not change this setting to OFF, the server may
not be able to handle the message correctly and a
communication error may occur.

Some servers can send mail to servers without DSN.
In this case, no delivery notification will be sent.

The default setting is OFF.

!

User Function 86, TEXT PRINT must be ON for your
machine to receive and print delivery notifications.

!

When User Function 98, Network Settings, DSN is ON,
your machine receives confirmations (DSN) from the
mail server of anyone sent a message by your machine.
