I just saw this article via Pocket in firefox,

and I wondered if that is an issue in fedora.  It seems that in order
for such tracking to work, it has to have the cooperation of the
operating system, or at least the mail client.  And, I would think that
open source mail clients don't allow that.  Am I right?

Thunderbird doesn't load images by default. You have to opt-in. I had someone I know that sends out business emails ask me why I don't ever read the emails. I told him that I do, but I don't allow tracking, so his system doesn't think I am.

In Thunderbird, there's also an option for how to handle read receipts. By default, it's set to "ask".
