Lotus Notes/Domino already has something similar to what Microsoft is
proposing.
You can designate an outgoing message as "read-only".
The end-user (if they are using a Notes Client) can only view the message,
menu choices for printing and cutting/copy text are disabled. Forwarding the
message is also disabled.
Note you can still use a screen grabber to grab the image off the screen...
Leave to Microsoft to claim it's a "new" idea.
(Although, after using Notes/Domino for over a year, I heartily agree with
Peter Guttman's assessment of it, and would definitely switch back to
Outlook/Exchange if given the choice between the two. POP/IMAP would be even
better).
