VPSHow is the receipt of a message acknowledged?

VPS 036Answer

A receipt acknowledging that a message sent to DEHSt has been received that is binding (acknowledgement receipt) vis-à-vis DEHSt can be found in the ”Sent” box under the tab Acknowledgement of Receipt.

An acknowledgment receipt is prepared automatically by DEHSt’s VPS Server and sent to the message sender, similar to a return receipt when mailing.

DEHSt will send no further acknowledgment receipt in the form of a separate message to the VPS communication partner.

The acknowledgment receipt in the "Sent" box acts as proof of delivery of the message for DEHSt.

When forwarding messages, the acknowledgment receipt also contains the message ID of the forwarded message in the "Inside message". However, it contains no information on the attachments. This information is stored in the verification report of the forwarded message in the "Inbox” under the tab "Verification report".

Therefore,

  • the acknowledgment receipt of the sent message and
  • the verification report of the relevant forwarded message represent proof that forwarded messages have been delivered.

Please make sure to back up the working directory ... / osci_governikus/ of your mailbox which contains all your VPS messages (see also FAQ No. VPS 003).

We collect our VPS news regularly from the VPS server.

Regardless of whether the message has already been picked up by DEHSt or not, the message qualifies as delivered from the date of receipt on DEHSt’s server. DEHSt therefore ask you to refrain from telephone inquiries about incoming messages when the appropriate reports are available for the sender.
