Nope. Not your property once it is off your host. Not under your
control once off your host. Would you want someone controlling your
host via e-mail? If they can see it then they can do whatever they
want with it.

You would need to use a secure mail tool such as Windows Rights Management or
one of the others listed he http://www.slipstick.com/addins/security.asp

And even that won't prevent someone from getting an image of the message or
writing down its contents and forwarding that information.

No. You can't do that with Outlook, nor with any other e-mail program.

And even if you could, the recipient could cut and paste it into a new
message, or copy it manually to a new message.

Thanks All,
I have an application and sends an email by creating the object of
Outlook.Application.
That mail goes to OutBox folder in Outlook, once user clicks on Send/Receive
button
it goes to the recipient.
But anyone can edit that mail in outbox and send it.
Can I check whether that mail is editted or its the original mail
Please Help

I am not sure of that - Lotus notes used to let me make e-mails as read only.
Sure you can get fanciy and screen print and stuff but it was nice.

ok let's not get carried away here - if this is intra compnay emil all on the
company host - it would be useful. Used to do this on Lotus notes.

If it's internal mail and within an Exchange server, then Sue's answer to you
applies.
