A read receipt informs the sender that the recipient has seen the email. ProtonMail enables you to request read receipts from the recipient of your email. Once the request has been sent, the recipient has the option to accept or decline the request. If they choose to accept it, you will be alerted once your email has been read. If they choose to decline it, you will not receive a notification.
Note that read receipts are not automatically generated in ProtonMail.
