Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer media for manipulating electronic messages are provided herein. A system for editing electronic messages can include at least one processor, and an application. The application can be configured to, when executed by the at least one processor, send an electronic message from a sender messaging account to a recipient messaging account, edit the message after it has been sent to the recipient messaging account to create an edited message and replace the sent message with the edited message in a same relative location of the sent message in the recipient's inbox, or delete the sent message or the edited message from the recipient's inbox.

- send an electronic message from a sender electronic messaging account to a recipient electronic messaging account;
- receive, from the sender electronic messaging account, instructions to modify the sent electronic message;
- based at least on the instructions to modify the sent electronic message, modify the sent electronic to create an edited electronic message;
- based at least on data related to a relative location of the sent electronic message in a recipient inbox associated with the recipient electronic messaging account, replace the sent electronic message in the recipient inbox with the edited electronic message, wherein the edited electronic message is placed at a same relative location in the recipient's inbox as the sent electronic message;
- receive, from the sender electronic messaging account, instructions to delete the edited electronic message;
- and
- based at least on the instructions to delete the edited electronic message, delete the edited electronic message from the recipient inbox.

- and based at least on an identification that the copy of the sent electronic message is stored in the read storage location, disable deletion of the sent electronic message from the recipient inbox.
One or more computer-readable storage media storing one or more computer-executable instructions for an electronic messaging system, the one or more computer-executable instructions configured to, when executed on a processor apparatus, cause the electronic messaging system to:
- send an electronic message from a sender electronic messaging account to a recipient electronic messaging account;
- store a copy of the sent electronic message in an unread storage location within the sender electronic messaging account;
- receive, from the sender electronic messaging account, instructions to delete the sent electronic message;
- based at least on the instructions to delete the sent electronic message and identification that the sent electronic message is stored in the unread storage location, delete the electronic message from the recipient inbox;
- based at least on data indicative of a read by recipient status of the sent electronic message:
- store the copy of the sent electronic message in a read storage location within the sender electronic messaging account;
- and
