There doesn't seem to be a way to tell if an Official Note was read by the candidate. It would be helpful to see if they're logging in and reading, or not logging in in which case we'll know to call or find another way to reach them. We'd like a date and time stamp when they open, and even better a time log that shows every time they open a message.
The issue with this is that if you have Official notes set to send an e-mail as well, they may have read the e-mail and not the Official Note. This would be a good option to have if you are only using Official Notes on their own though.
