We have discussed some of new features in Office 2010 including a review of Outlook 2010 which has gone for a complete change with ribbon feature. Many of the features have changed the way it is being accessed in Outlook 2010. In Outlook you have the option to recall or resent a mail which you have already sent. The option to resent or recall a message has been changed with Outlook 2010. In case you accidently sent a mail or you want to resent the mails, follow the steps below.
Go to the sent items folder and open the mail which you want to recall or resend. Click on the office icon on the top of the mail and in the settings you can see the option to recall or resend the mail.
When you select Recall This Message, a pop up opens up asking you more options on recalling the message.
If you want to Resend the mail, a new mail window opens up with the content and you can resend it.
It’s worth noting that the ability to Recall a message is (typically) limited to corporate users.
Joe User, using Outlook at home to send and receive his Yahoo/Gmail/etc mail, might think that attempting to recall that email about Bill Gates giving money away after he visited Snopes.com would safe face, but alas, he’ll suffer even more embarrassment when his “reply all” stating that he “recalled” the message is met with further mockery.
Seriously, folks, recalling email is handy, but even in corporate environments where it’s possible, the recipients can often still see the email! Don’t rely on it to delete the dirty pictures you meant to send to Al at XYZCompany when you inadvertantly emailed it to “ALL@xyzcompany.com”
