If by "return receipts" you mean the "Return-Receipt-To:" header,
the correct thing is to ignore them.  They were never a standard,
and have been officially obsoleted by DSNs, Delivery Status Notifications.
See RFC's 1891 and 1894.  Recent sendmail versions ignore Return-Receipt-To
by default and handle only DSNs.
