If as you see it, emails wouldn't work, what might? For example: I know other
e-commerce sites we use, try and handle these issues via fairly non intrusive
onsite prompts. Not saying that's the way to go here, but at least proffer
possible solutions too.
On the other hand, if you don't perceive the matter as a problem or weakness
in the system, just say that.

I guess the real issue is what isn't working. Does it matter that a seller
doesn't know that the buyer has received their order (marking it complete)
or happy with it (or not)(leaving feedback). The first can be dealt with at the
seller's expense by paying for tracking/proof of delivery. But does the typical
seller really care, so long as it is not lost.
If it is felt that the seller has the right to know these, it could be forced
on the buyer at various levels of pain. For example, a warning could pop up on
every bricklink page once an order is shipped to remind them to mark it received
and complete and to leave feedback. Or more forceful, a limit on the number of
orders that can be open as a buyer, so if they have, say, 10 then no more orders
can be placed until they complete the others and leave feedback. Or have weekly
automated emails from BL if they have open orders over, say, 2 weeks that nag
them to complete the orders.
Personally, I don't tell an online store that I have received the items I
ordered, or give them feedback on the service. I also fdont expect them to rate
how well i paid. Therefore I don't expect it here.
I rarely do it on ebay, either as a buyer or seller. For someone new to this
site, I doubt they care too much if they dont give feedback for other shopping.
I do tend to do it here partly because I know sellers like it, partly as I like
to see my housekeeping jobs done and partly because so long as some people do
it, it is useful in getting an idea about whether a store is reliable. But not
everyone needs to do it for it to be useful.
