Hi Popovich,
Thank you for all your links, I will definitely look into them. Do you mean to say that if I use Gmail that Readverify won't be able to trace it? Or do you mean that he would not be able to access my IP manually?
I would be interested to see what ReadVerify can come up with. Obviously it was not their intention to provide people with a tool to stalk and harass other people, and probably most of their clients are professional people.
To respond to Theresa's question, we have children in the family and sometimes he would send an email with subject 'school' or similar, which would compell me to open it to read it. Sometimes it would be something banal like 'am I having them this weekend?' and if I don't respond promptly, he then sends another one to tell me that he knows when I opened my email and that he expects a response by such and such time.
We are going through numerous court hearings and the court wants to see that we can communicate in children's interests despite DV issues. When I ignore he daily banal emails, he tells me he will use my silence or non compliance, if you like, in court against me. I have recently warned him that his 'readverify' tracking is perceived by me as stalking and that I feel threatened by it, and if he does not stop this I would report him to the police. I am hoping this would stop him for a while.
Thank you once again for all your help.
