Hi, There's any way to 'auto-destroy' na email sent after N days? I'd like to send an email to someone and after N days the email became unreadeble. Is that possible? I thougth about a certificate that expires. Will that work? Does something like that exists? Thanks alot. Thiago Lima.
In the general case, this is pretty silly. All they have to do is receive it, print it or copy the text of it, and it's there essentially forever. The only way this works is if they receive it but don't read it before the encryption cert expires. I can't imagine a scenario that justifies so much work. Kurt
