SYMPTOMS
When disabling deliver/read receipt after having it on for a period of
time, you may continue to receive deliver/read receipt messages.
Receipt messages can be enabled/disabled by using the Option item on the
Tools menu. In the Send tab and there are two options: request a receipt
when the item has been read and request a receipt when the item has been
delivered
CAUSE
This is by design. Although you have turned off Deliver/Read Receipt, if
you have messages that were created prior to turning off these options then
the notification messages will still appear. This is because these
attributes are applied to the message at compose time not at send time
