I have seen some emails servers that if I send a email to other person I can see if that person have read our emails and with a option to delete the email if the person hasn't read our email.
Does dovecot have some like this feature?
first dovecot is not a MTA, so no even if it would be a MTA think about how email works:
- you send a message via SMTP over your MTA
- your MTA dellivers the message to the target MX
- how will you bring back any mail after that?
This could work within a single email server, and could be useful in situations like "oops, I just sent an unfinished email to colleague".
There is also an expired draft to make it work across multiple servers: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-leiba-morg-message-recall-00
Thanks Timo, I was not aware that there was a draft addressing this. It certainly would be useful in certain environments.
