ive been getting a few spams recently where my email client (mozilla thunderbird)..pops up and says "the author has requested notification when you open this email"
now there are 2 options...click yes or cancel. I always click cancel but the email automatically opens up i can't delete it without clicking/highlighting it. just wondered if anyone else has had this?

I believe if you press cancel all it does is open up the email for you, but doesn't send the "author" the reciept that you have opened and read the email, most email clients have a facility to put a read reciept on an email


Can you not right click and delete the email if you don't know the sender?
