Abstract
A secure data path enables sending and receiving message applications to transmit instructions for recalling a sent message and updating or deleting content of the recalled message in an inbox of a recipient. In response to a recall request from the sending message application over the secure channel, since the receiving message application has access to a recipient inbox, the receiving message application may process the recall request to update and/or delete content of a received message—even after a recipient has read the received message. Since the content of a received message may be updated or deleted in a recipient inbox, robust and reliable message recall is provided.
