Tip #1 - RECALLING AN EMAIL MESSAGE USING OUTLOOK 2010
Everybody's had the desire to recall a sent email message! If you're using Outlook 2010 (and so is the recipient) you have a couple of options. Microsoft's Office Support Site advises you accordingly...
To recall a message (without sending a revise):
- In Mail, in the Navigation Pane, click Sent Items.
- Open the message that you want to recall.
- On the Message tab, in the Move group, click Actions, and then click Recall This Message.
- Click Delete unread copies of this message.
To Recall and replace a message
This is useful if you forgot to include an attachment or have an edit to make. The original message is removed from the mailboxes of the recipients who have not yet opened it and then is replaced with the updated message.
- In Mail, in the Navigation Pane, click Sent Items.
- Open the message that you want to recall and replace.
- On the Message tab, in the Move group, click Actions, and then click Recall This Message.
- Click Delete unread copies and replace with a new message.
NOTE If you are sending the message to many people, you may want to clear the Tell me if recall succeeds or fails for each recipient check box.
- Click OK, and then update the new message. You can also remove or add file attachments.
- Click Send.
