I never considered this. Thank you.

That's your right. On the other hand, I gladly give read receipts to friends, colleagues and people with whom I am doing business. In fact during certain projects, I may even tell someone to send me a particular communication with read receipt and if he hasn't gotten it within a specific amount of time to telephone me.
