im not sure, but i think "unsending email" or "revoking email" is a feature implemented in some smtp RFCs somewhere. i cannot quote the numbers, but i think i remember i read about this feature some 10 years ago or so. BTW.. Micro$uck Outlook and exchange server suppors this feature too. so its not a google exclusive feature. check out our MUA if you can find sumthing similar there. PS: the targets mailserver has to support this feature to have it work. not all mailservers support that todays.
With IPTLock, you can "unsend" any email at any time. "Like" IPTLock on Facebook to learn more.

what good is this if you can't "unsend" the email after it's already gone? it really makes no sense to me. bad feature imo.
