Thread: Say It With Self-Destructing E-Mail

E-mail is forever. If you fire off an angry or ill-thought-out message, the recipient could hold onto it and hold it against you indefinitely.

Send a self-destructing e-mail message by going to the Web site Destructing Message . Just specify how much time you want to give the recipient before the message implodes (15 seconds to 5 minutes), write your ,message, and send it.

DestructingMessage can send the e-mail anonymously, or you can send a link to the message yourself. Either w,ay, the recipient has a limited time to read it before it's gone for good. If the recipient is quick on her feet, though, she could grab a screen shot before it's gone forever.
