I've been sending return receipts by doing this procedure:

1. Tools --> Accounts
2. Select account.
3. Select Options tab.
4. Create additional header: Disposition-Notification-to: with value equal
to my e-mail address.
5. Compose and send a message.
6. Repear process but instead of Step 4, remove the additional header.

I'd love to use a script that does this instead. Perchance is there one
already written? My AppleScript skills are not quite up to the task....

Sorry to say that additional headers aren't scriptable, but you can do what
you want by creating a duplicate account and adding the DNR header to that
account. Then, when you want to send a DNR mail, just select that account
from the pop-up menu next to the 'from' header.
