I have in fact never said "I should be able to unsend my email". Once. In my life. Please try to argue with my actual points; I don't have time for straw men.

>Asking to unsend an email is a reasonable request. The answer could be yes or no given the circumstances, but it's only an absurd question to people who have taken a 1980s technological choice and treat it as some sort of unalterable gospel.

We're here answering affirmatively that "No" is the right answer for a LOT more reasons than an appeal to authority and history, and you accuse me of a strawman?

I wish you the best in life. Have a good day.

Yes, I am indeed accusing you of a strawman. You seem very much in the discussion to win it, whatever that means to you. I can only hope that, having decided you are victorious, you'll now leave me alone, because none of your comments seem particularly productive to me.
