How to revoke outlook mail

Revoking an Outlook email can be a bit tricky, but it's possible in certain situations. Here are the steps to follow:

Revoking an email sent by mistake

If you've sent an email by mistake and want to recall it, you can try the following:

1. Go to the "Sent Items" folder in your Outlook inbox.
2. Find the email you want to revoke and right-click on it.
3. Select "Recall This Message" from the context menu.
4. Outlook will try to recall the email from the recipient's inbox. If the recipient has already read the email, it may not be possible to recall it.

Revoking an email sent with a specific subject line

If you've sent multiple emails with the same subject line and want to revoke all of them, you can use the "Search" function in Outlook:

1. Go to the "Search" box in the top-right corner of the Outlook window.
2. Type the subject line of the email you want to revoke in the search box.
3. Press Enter to search for the email.
4. Select the email(s) you want to revoke and right-click on them.
5. Select "Recall This Message" from the context menu.

Revoking an email sent to a specific recipient

If you've sent an email to a specific recipient and want to revoke it, you can use the "To" field in the email header:

1. Go to the "Sent Items" folder in your Outlook inbox.
2. Find the email you want to revoke and click on it to open it.
3. Look for the "To" field in the email header and click on it.
4. Right-click on the recipient's email address and select "Remove from Recipients" from the context menu.
5. Confirm that you want to remove the recipient from the email.

Revoking an email sent with a specific attachment

If you've sent an email with a specific attachment and want to revoke it, you can use the "Attachments" folder in Outlook:

1. Go to the "Attachments" folder in your Outlook inbox.
2. Find the attachment you want to revoke and right-click on it.
3. Select "Remove" from the context menu.
4. Confirm that you want to remove the attachment.

Important notes

• Revoking an email is not always possible, especially if the recipient has already read or responded to the email.
• Revoking an email may not work if the recipient's email client or server does not support recall or if the email has already been deleted from their inbox.
• Revoking an email may also not work if you're using a web-based email client like Outlook.com, as these services may not support recall.
