I am not sure if this is possible but I am in a dilema where I need to take back an email that was sent. Can anyone please help with this problem?????
 
Sorry...you are probably out of luck. Such a feature is available only within a corporate workgroup and using Outlook with an Exchange server. For Internet mail once it is sent it is gone. joegz

Actually you can recall messages sent outside your corporate e-mail system.

Open up the e-mail from your sent folder. Then under "Actions" click on "Recall this message".

I have tested it and it does work.

There is no 'Actions' menu in OE.

Also, once it's sent, it's sent. Peter Meachem
