Outlook Web Recall Email

Recalling an email in Outlook 2016 allows you to retrieve and replace an email that has already been sent. Here are the steps to do it:

1. Go to your Sent Items folder. You can access this in the folder pane on the left side of the Outlook window.
2. Open the email that you wish to recall. Ensure you double-click on the message and that it opens. Simply having the message on the reading pane won’t enable you to recall it.
3. Once you have the email open, head to the Message tab and select Actions. A menu will pop up and you will then have to select the Recall This Message option.
4. Two options will appear, “Delete unread copies of this message” and “Delete unread copies and replace with a new message”. Select which option applies to your situation and then click OK.
5. If you’re replacing a message, write the message and hit Send once you’re satisfied with it.
