Without this, this has much limited use, especially in offical use, where this can used as an official confirmation mechanism.
Since this can be disabled in most MUAs, I would not recommend using this for "official" use. IMHO it can never be counted on to work 100% of the time.
Some people like it, but most have a higher expectation than what it really provides.

Yes Charles, there are shortcomings. But something is still better than nothing.
It is true that this can be disabled in MUA, but perhaps this can be set at the adminstrator level to be a forced preference, which the user cannot turn off.
In squirrelmail, a flag stating that the return receipt has been requested will be there until you send the receipt.
When you open the mail, there is a button asking for sending the receipt. You can click "cancel" and go into the message, but then the above flag remains.
Perhaps the"cancel" feature can be disabled at the admin level or the sender level.
