Recall outlook email
I'd be happy to help you recall an Outlook email. To do this, you'll need to have the email open in your Outlook client or be able to access the email through the Outlook web app.
Here are the steps to recall an email in Outlook:
Method 1: Using the "Recall This Message" feature
- Open the email you want to recall in Outlook.
- Click on the "Message" tab in the ribbon.
- Click on the "Actions" button in the "Move" group.
- Select "Recall This Message" from the dropdown menu.
- In the "Recall This Message" dialog box, select the reason for recalling the message (e.g., "The message was sent in error").
- Click "OK" to recall the message.
Method 2: Using the "Delete Unread Receipt" feature
- Open the email you want to recall in Outlook.
- Click on the "Message" tab in the ribbon.
- Click on the "Actions" button in the "Move" group.
- Select "Delete Unread Receipt" from the dropdown menu.
- In the "Delete Unread Receipt" dialog box, select the reason for deleting the receipt (e.g., "The message was sent in error").
- Click "OK" to delete the unread receipt.
Important notes:
- Recalling an email only works if the recipient has not yet read the email.
- If the recipient has already read the email, you won't be able to recall it.
- Recalling an email will not delete the email from the recipient's inbox, but it will remove the email from your Sent Items folder.
- If you're using Outlook Web App, you may need to use the "More" menu to access the "Recall This Message" feature.
