We have an extra mailbox at our server, where every mail is
kept.

Now when the owner of this mailbox deletes a mail,
the sender gets a not read notification (mail deleted without read).

How can you turn this notification off.

We have an exchange 2003 server and his ooutlook is 2000.

We have searched and searched but nothing.

Please help.
 
It would be nice to be able to turn of receipt handling at the mailbox level. Unfortunately, all read receipt configuration is handled at the server level (or global, really).

I would start by trying to use Outlook XP as the mail client for that catch-all mailbox. I know that you can disable receipts in Outlook XP but not in Outlook 2000.

The only other thing I can think of doing without changing mail client is to use an event sink to delete read receipt headers out of emails. The problem is that I'm not sure whether you can configure an event sink to trigger on a per-mailbox level, and it might only be applied to emails traversing the SMTP connector. You can research this option more on your own; here's a kickoff article to get you started:
Hope this helps,
