Sending an email without properly reading it first can lead to feelings of regret. Whether it is a message to a business partner, a job application or even an enemy, once you hit ‘Send’ there’s no going back, even if the email contained sensitive information or incomplete details. However, the Spikenow platform provides users with a way to correct these errors by revoking the message.
To revoke an email sent through Outlook, follow these simple steps: open the ‘Sent’ file, double-click on the email you want to recall, select ‘Additional options’, choose ‘Revoke message’ under ‘Answers’, decide whether to delete the unread copy or replace it with a new message and press ‘OK’. Keep in mind that if the recipient has already read the message or is outside the Outlook domain, the recall may not be successful.
