The Right Way to Recall Emails in Outlook | OBX Weekly
This tip could be a lifesaver!
Hey everyone 👋
I hope you all enjoyed the weekend!
In this edition of OBX Weekly, we’ll show you how to recall emails in Outlook and delay sending. Let’s get right into it…
💡 FACTS OF THE WEEK
Around 362 billion emails are sent and received each day, a figure projected to increase to 408 billion by 2027.
While 46% of these emails are spam, email remains a crucial tool for business communication, with the average office worker sending around 40 emails per day.
Given this volume, errors are inevitable, leading many to wonder if they can recall or edit a sent email, much like editing a poorly crafted tweet.
There’s good and bad news for Outlook users.
Yes, you can recall sent emails in Outlook, but there are several limitations:
Recipients must be within your organisation.
Recipients must not have opened the email yet.
Both users must be using Outlook.
Emails must be in the recipient's Inbox.
Both users must be on the same Microsoft Exchange server.
With this in mind, we’re giving you a complete guide on how to recall emails in the New and Classic versions of Outlook.
