I know that the documentation says that you can't send read receipts;
and I can easily believe that Evolution doesn't actively do anything to
send them, but they do get sent when I use Evolution, and everybody else
- who use Windows - don't have this problem, so it is definitely
specific to the interaction between Evolution's Connector and Exchange. 

Would it not be possible for the Connector developer(s) to look into
this? I believe Outlook has an option somewhere that allows the user to
turn this on/off, so it would seem that Exchange has read receipts on by
default, and Outlook has them off. Stupid, I agree, but then this is
Microsoft we're talking about.

Apart from this, I have been quite happy with the way Evolution works,
though I would have liked to be able to turn off HTML interpretation
completely, like you can in eg. Thunderbird.
