OUTLOOK TIP - Take it back...the message that is

Problem:
You sent a message and forgot to include a crucial piece of information. Since the receiver is your boss, and you don't want to look like a total fool, it would be a relief to retract the message before she reads it.

Solution:
This only works if the recipient is on the same Exchange Server (@etown.edu), and they don't 'Pop" their mail. And even then, the recipient will be able to see that you recalled the message.

Disclaimer:
The recipient will still be able to see that you sent a message, which they can read if they wish.

Select your Sent Items folder
Open the message you want to retract Select the Actions menu Select Recall This Message
OK
You are notified if the action was successful or not
	The action will not work if the person has already read the message, so think before sending!
