    Did you check out customized-hdrs in your configuaration?  You can
add a customized  Return-Receipt-To: your-email-address  on your own. 
(It is not there automatically.)  I hope you are aware that even with
this header, you will get a receipt only if the receving system honors
it, which it is not required to do, and it will tell you nothing about
whether the end recipient has actually opened and read your message.
