what about google caching the email content even the email is not opened, it will show the email has been opened

[@TheRafark]

But It’d only cache the source wouldn’t it?

What about external media download and email tracking privacy of email providers? How can we deal with this?

[@QuintinvanRooyen1]

That's a clientside option, and there is no real way to get around that. Many companies like mailtrack embed a single pixel tracking image on emails, and if the recipient never downloads the image (for instance reads the email as plaintext) or they have an extension that blocks tracking pixels you will never get the notification. There is no way that you can force the loading of images on the recipient side.

nice php example. apache already logs all those infos by itself inside its access log though
