Patent

CA 2298274

An electronic mail (email) system allows a user to specify a delete time for automatically deleting an email message. Depending on the implementation, the user may be the sender of the message, the recipient, or the system administrator. The delete time may be specified as a duration of time following receipt of the message or as a specified date and time. In either case when the specified delete time expires, the computer that received and stored the message to memory automatically deletes the message. In this way, control can be exercised to prevent the indefinite retention of email messages that may contain sensitive or other confidential information.
