It's a courtesy acknowledgement.
Personally, I save all that shite to a file in case a fricker ever says they never received something.

Absolutely

Isn't this just a huge waste of time?

At least it lets the sender know you saw the email.

At my company deleted emails stick around 6 months, I think that's good enough.

I'll stop commenting on this thread. In general, it's no big deal so it was a dumb thread to start.
There are a ton of other annoying things that she does that would add more color to why I am vexed by something as trivial as this, but anyway I'll stop using the OT as my diary for today.

Not really. Some industries have legally mandated retention obligations.

You mean the 5 whole extra seconds it adds?

Why? Those aren't reliable.

People who acknowledge emails are better than people who complain about trivial shite

They can be manually overridden.

So, you have a 60 year-old woman "grooming" you? Hmmm...
Posted on 10/21/16 at 9:41 am to Jorts R Us
Wow that must be such a shitty place to work where your boss tells you "thanks!"

Doesn't that kinda defeat the purpose of the entire thing it's meant to do?

My boss constantly does this. She sits behind me and verbally acknowledges when she receives files I send, yet 1 minute later I get an email with nothing other than "thanks!"
Why? Just more shite for me to delete.
You'll never be a manager/leader of anyone.

There's nothing to cover. It's a file. Often one she could have pulled herself.
You can use it against her if she says she never got it. "You acknowledged receiving it."
