How to recall mail in windows mail app
To recall a sent email in the Windows Mail app, you can follow these steps:
Method 1: Using the "Recall" feature
- Open the Windows Mail app and go to the "Sent" folder.
- Find the email you want to recall and right-click on it.
- Select "Recall this message" from the context menu.
- In the "Recall this message" window, select the reason for recalling the message (e.g., "I sent it to the wrong person" or "I made a mistake").
- Click "Recall" to send a recall request to the recipient.
Method 2: Using the "Undo Send" feature
- Open the Windows Mail app and go to the "Sent" folder.
- Find the email you want to recall and right-click on it.
- Select "Undo Send" from the context menu.
- In the "Undo Send" window, select the reason for undoing the send (e.g., "I made a mistake" or "I changed my mind").
- Click "Undo" to undo the send and recall the email.
Note: The "Recall" and "Undo Send" features are only available if the recipient's email client supports recall and if the email has not been read or deleted by the recipient.
Additional tips:
- If you're using a Microsoft Exchange account, you may need to use the "Recall" feature in Outlook instead of the Windows Mail app.
- If you're using a POP3 or IMAP account, you may not be able to recall emails using the Windows Mail app.
- Recall requests may not always be successful, as the recipient's email client may not support recall or may have already read or deleted the email.
