If you are connected, no way. If you are not, and kmail already sent it to postfix, and if you can determine which email it is with 'mailq' (and perhaps 'postcat'), then 'postsuper -d queue_id' will delete it. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson

Until those clever SUSE people can master time travel, and code it for kmail users, all you can do is delete your local copy of the mail. Jake

This is only something Exchange + Outlook can do and it's got time limits. I always find it funny when someone at work who uses our Corp. Exchange servers tries to do this. My department uses a different group of mail servers (Solaris+Sendmail)..and we get the message even if they recall it. It's led to some serious foot in mouth messages getting out. *laugh* Sorry it can't be done using Kmail and pop3 as the person before me said. -- Ben Rosenberg ---===--- #147972 ---===--- mailto:ben@whack.org -- Why do we bother with a suicide watch when someone is on death row?

As long as the mail hasnt left the local computer its ok :) As soon as the SMTP has its clutches on the mail its as good as delivered allready. But if you manage to intercept the mail BEFORE it reaches the mailserver....
