I'm with Andy on this one. Dmail is simply a message stored on their server, viewable via a web site or browser plugin. As Andy says, there's nothing to stop the recipient from printing it, to paper or to PDF.
As for the comments about giving someone access to a document and then revoking access, if I download that document, then I have it on my computer and there is nothing the sender can do about that. In Google Drive or MS OneDrive, I can share a document and revoke access later. What's so special about that? Let's just wait and see how much this is going to cost!
