To recall a sent message:

  •  Go to your Sent Items folder and open the message you wish to recall. 
  • Click File and then Info.
  • Choose Resend or Recall and click Recall this Message.
  • Select the relevant option e.g. Delete unread copies of this message and click OK.

You will receive a notification message informing you whether or not the message has been successfully recalled. If the recipient(s) have read the message you will be unable to recall it.
