dave said:I've always looked at tree mails the same way I view email. Once you send it, it's gone and can't be retracted or edited. So to make them editable would require some rethinking on how it works. But I'll give it some thought.
dave said:I remember those but in nearly every case they didn't work. Once the email is sent it is immediately delivered across the network, usually directly to the user's computer. It has always been impossible to legally reach into someone else's computers and delete content. Those programs "worked" by sending a followup email that, when received by the recipient's software, will trigger it to delete the original mail. But both users had to have compatible software and few email clients supported retraction.

Just a thought.
