New E-mail Platform Allows More Control Over Sent Messages

Dmail is a new e-mail application that allows users to delete messages after they hit send. Also in development is a feature that will let users control how their messages can be forwarded.
According to an article in Tech Crunch:

The idea for the new service comes from the team behind the social bookmarking service Delicious. A longtime web staple, Delicious was sold by its former owners, YouTube co-founders Chad Hurley and Steve Chen, to the tech investment and advisory firm Science, Inc., run by former MySpace President Mike Jones.
Of course, the ability to revoke an email has been around for some time – but those earlier implementations leave a lot to be desired. For example, Microsoft Outlook users at a company that uses Exchange Server can recall emails, but it doesn’t work with addresses outside the organization. Meanwhile, Gmail’s own “un-send” feature – which recently graduated from Gmail Labs – lets you cancel a sent email by configuring the number of seconds after hitting “Send” that you can click on an “Undo Send” link to bring your message back to drafts.
However, Gmail’s undo send option is limited to 30 seconds max. With Dmail, you can destroy a sent email at any time.
