Hi, Sharath.

Open the message you want the delivery report for and select the Tracking tab.

Thanks David....

I want this into an excel for each mail i send...

So i can find by filtering who missed reading them
I see that in your other question.  I didn't see any mention of Excel in this question.  
Sorry this message was for the other post...
:-(
>>Open the message you want the delivery report for and select the Tracking tab.

When i set the delivery report On. I get a mail back sating it has been delivered and another mail when the user reads the mail. Can i get those mails into 1 folder always no matter what subject or from whome it comes from
I suppose you could, but why would you want to?  The tracking information is updated in the original message.  There's no need to keep the receipts.
David....


I send mails to users every week for 4 times per month...To confirm some details.
Only users who are working on those days to collect some info.
The management has strictly instructed all to reply on these mails

I received most of them and some i dont. Now what is the easiet way for me to find who has not read and replied?

Is there a way...

If he/she has replied then i do update it into an excel....
if he's read the mail if i could get a way to see that then that would be more useful...

Not sure on an automated way, but you can set up a message rule (under tools - rules if memory serves correctly....apologies if not as I'm not at a windows machine). This can then be set to move all messages with READ or DELIVERED in the subject line to a folder of your chosing.  You can then export the messages via the file menu into a .csv file.

Does this help?
I understand, Sharath.  "If he/she has replied then i do update it into an excel...", that's your other question.  I'm working on that in the other question.  This question didn't make any mention of exporting things to Excel and changing it to do that would duplicate the other question.  This question only asked about how to get a report.  The answer to that is that the tracking tab of a message already has everything you want.  
David i have been mixing both...
What i want is what ever reply i get from read and delivery i want them into a folder

David i have mailed you my thisoutlooksession code...Can you add this into that code please...
I did change this line

Item.Move OpenOutlookFolder("\\Mailbox - Sharath\Delivered & Read")

But the mails do not get into the folders they come into the inbox as usual

Please double check the path.  That's the most likely cause.
Thanks David its my mistake...
Works perfect
David i did try and it worked for few mails after that again all the delivered and read mails are landing into my inbox...

Any ideas.

I do have the path perfect . Its identical in thisoutlooksession

Sharath,

The only explanation I can think of is that either tha macro has stopped working or all macros have stopped working.  It's difficult for me to say when I can't see what's going on.  Are other macros still working?
David i rechecked all the other codes work

I have the code as this

Private Sub olkInbox_ItemAdd(ByVal Item As Object)
    If Item.Class = olReport Then
        'Change the folder path on the next line'
        Item.Move OpenOutlookFolder("\\Mailbox - Sharath\Delivered&Read")
    End If
End Sub

The mails get into the inbox... Any help troubleshooting please'
