Cause

This issue is due to the messages not being read by the user before they were deleted, causing Outlook/Exchange to send not read messages.

Resolution

SourceOne does not send read receipts as this is a function of Outlook/Exchange.  If messages are not read before being deleted by a SourceOne activity it will trigger Outlook/Exchange to send not read receipts.
