So let's think for a second: if it "has not been downloaded/viewed by the recipient" where is the message? On the server!
Yes it's on the server, but it's in the recepient's mailbox on the server, and as far as I am concerned, that ought to stop any tampering with that email - whether or not it has been accepted or read by the recepient. If I am the recepient, and a message is sitting in my mailbox ON THE SERVER - even though I have not downloaded or seen it - it's no one else's business to come in and delete it.
