DMAIL is an attempt at creating Email that is deleted upon reading. It is being provided by Google Inc and once an Email has been read, a 2nd attempt to access or read it returns:

“this message has been destroyed and is no longer available.”

DMails are encrypted using a standard 256-bit encryption algorithm. When a user sends a DMail, the body of that email is encrypted locally on the user’s machine.

An encrypted copy of that email is sent to a datastore controlled by DMail. The recipient of the email is sent both the location of that datastore, as well as a key to view the decrypted message.
"I received a DMail from my Father-In-Law. He had a phone number in it and wanted me to call him the moment I got it."
