Additional tips:
- If you're using a Microsoft Exchange account, you may need to check with your administrator to see if recall is enabled for your organization.
- If you're using a POP3 or IMAP account, recall may not be available.
- Recall is not available for emails sent to recipients outside of your organization (e.g., Gmail, Yahoo, etc.).
- If you're unable to recall an email, you can try sending a new email to the recipient apologizing for the mistake and asking them to delete the original email.
