Ok, the only way I can see this working is:

Someone sends an email to another AOL user. That mail is available right away however if the person hasn't logged into their account for say 6 hours then they do not know they even have a new email. During that 6 hour period the sender could cancel the email. If a receiver of the email logs in, one minute after the sender has sent it, and sees they have a new email then it can't be cancelled.

Based on that idea, it doesn't really have anything to do with actually reading the mail but whether or not the receiver has seen they have new mail???
