## Description
Gmail never tells you if your email was actually read. CMDK adds real read receipts right inside Gmail. Turn one on with the lightning toggle before you send, then a single gray check means sent and a double blue check means read. You even get a desktop notification the moment they open it, and your Sent list shows "Read" or "Not opened yet" at a glance.

CMDK also adds a command bar, split inbox, snoozing, snippets, and keyboard shortcuts to Gmail. #4 Product of the Day on Product Hunt.
