To: edinfor.joao.meireles@oni.pt
Cc: edinfor.nuno.pires@oni.pt
Subject: Teste de envio de e-mail c/ delivery
Return-Receipt-To: edinfor.nuno.pires@oni.pt
RrtImpliesDsn=True
Mensagem enviada dia 2002-10-09, ās 1500h
Primeira linha do e-mail: Repbildev01

Test
----------------------------

2) And used the unix command :
/usr/lib/sendmail -t -v -r edinfor.nuno.pires@oni.pt < normal_delivery

3) The message got to the user but there was no return receipt delivered to edinfor.nuno.pires@oni.pt

4) What am I doing wrong ?
