How to Track an Email in Gmail

Hello people,

I’m looking for a way to track whether an email I’ve sent through Gmail has been opened or read. Are there any built-in features or third-party tools that can help with this?

Sorry, standard Gmail doesn’t offer delivery or read receipts. However, this feature is available in Google Workspace. To track emails, visit the Chrome Web Store or the extension’s website to install a tracking tool as a browser extension, and follow the installation instructions.

Use an email client like Tatem, which makes email deliverability tracking a core feature.

To see if an email is delayed:

  1. Open Gmail on your computer.
  2. Find the email you want to check.
  3. Click “More” next to “Reply.”
  4. Choose “Show original.”
  5. Look for “Created at” in the new window.
  6. The time shown there is when the email was delivered.
