I use asinet routines for sending and receiving
mails. The solution is based on htmlmail sample.
My customer wants to get a receipt to be sure
the mail arrived.
How can I set this using this library?

TIA: Pintér Balázs

Try:

oMail:addHeader   ( "Read-Receipt-To", "user@example.com" )

Not tested!

There is a header in the mail you can add which requests the mail client to
return a receipt.  However, please note that not all clients can handle this
header, and most that do can be configured to ignore it.  See RFC 822 for
details.

Not only the mail client, but also the mail client user can ignore it - at
least this is what I do most of the time 

There also is a high chance that the receipt email is catched by the SPAM
filter.

I consider this a quite useless function.
