I ignore them 99% of the time. If they are coming from someone sending an email on behalf of One Of Our Big Important People and I don't have time to respond to the email immediately I might send one, but usually I try to set some time aside to just respond to the email - even if the response is "I don't know/I don't have this but I'm working on it" because I don't want their lives to be harder than they have to be.
Read receipts just don't work with how I approach my work email. Sure, I read that email at 8:25am but that's because I was doing email triage. I'm not going to reply to it until I've had more coffee and worked out what to respond with/if it's even my job to respond to it.
