Unsending Emails in Outlook
Outlook offers a feature to recall or replace sent emails, but its effectiveness depends on several factors. Here's a breakdown:
-
Using "Recall This Message": This is the primary method. To use it:
- Open the sent email you want to recall from your <a href="https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Sent%20Items%20Folder">Sent Items Folder</a>.
- If using the classic ribbon, click File > Info > Resend or Recall Message > Recall This Message.... If using the simplified ribbon, open the email, click the three dots (...), and then Actions > Recall This Message.
- Choose whether to delete unread copies of this message or delete unread copies and replace with a new message.
- Tick the box "Tell me if recall succeeds or fails for each recipient" to receive notifications.
- Click OK.
-
Success Factors: Recall is more likely to succeed if:
- The recipient uses Outlook as their email client.
- The recipient hasn't opened the email yet.
- Both you and the recipient are on the same Microsoft Exchange or Microsoft 365 organization.
-
Limitations:
- Recall <a href="https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Does%20Not%20Work">Does Not Work</a> if the recipient is using a different email client (like Gmail, Yahoo, etc.).
- If the recipient has read the message, recall will likely fail.
- Recall won't work if a rule has moved the email out of the recipient's Inbox.
- The recall feature is time-sensitive and may not work after a certain amount of time.
-
Alternatives:
- If recall fails, you can send a <a href="https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Follow-Up%20Email">Follow-Up Email</a> apologizing for the error or providing corrected information.
- Contact the recipient directly (e.g., by phone or chat) to explain the situation.
-
Outlook on the Web: The recall function is not available in Outlook on the web. You have to use the Outlook desktop application.
