So it was encrypted with using their public key? If you don't have access to the private key that can decrypt it, you wouldn't even have access to be able to revoke. You can only revoke your own key.

Otherwise, I'd say you would have to find a way to destroy the email from their side. If you can't do that, depending on how you feel about this person, you could try to lock them out of their account by guessing information in the "forgot password" dialogues to change the pass to their account or even just guess/crack their pass to delete the email yourself.

I'm thinking about using paper and pencil for passwords. It doesn't need batteries and it isn't potentially online. (I suppose you could also encrypt passwords on an offline mobile device and that would be better) Use a simple cipher to encrypt your paper passwords, if you choose to go that route. Should slow an attacker down, unless they can copy it to their computer.
