A process for secure, recallable and erasable delivery of email employing
a modified sender's MTA that preprocesses email prior to sending a
substituted modified email to the recipient's MTA. The sender's MTA
preprocesses the email by first stripping the body from the email and
creating an image file of the body and a separate image file for each
attachment, then creating an entry into a data base containing the body
of the email, time saved, destroy time, a field for logging time first
displayed, and optionally a counter for total number of times
displayable, and finally creating a link to the stored image and
substituting the link for the body in the email. The recipient views the
email or attachments when the link is executed. The sender can edit or
delete any active email and attachments he has sent by logging onto the
website of sender's HTTP S server.
