Have them click a link to acknowledge receipt.

A tracking pixel hit only means that that the email was received and loaded in some email client, not that it was read (in detail, or at all), understood, or acted on.

Moreover, a lack of tracking pixel hit doesn't mean the e-mail wasn't loaded, much less that it wasn't read, understood or acted on.
