Message recall in Yahoomail and Hotmail

Asked By conan herrera 40 points N/A Posted on - 04/16/2012

Is there a way for me to recall sent messages in yahoomail and Hotmail?

I've accidentally sent a confidential e-mail to some wrong recipients and I wanted to make sure that it would be deleted in their system.

If I cannot recall them, is there some other way to automatically delete those sent e-mails in their inbox?

Message recall in Yahoomail and Hotmail

 

If you’re using the web interface email then it will be permanent action. Once you have sent an email and if you have chosen to save it on your sent items folder, you can delete the sent items from this folder, however, once the mail is sent to the recipients inbox, they can still open the email even if you have deleted it as a sent item

If you’re using email client application like Microsoft Outlook then it is possible to retrieve any email after you sent as long as the receiver hasn't already opened it. ) If you are using Microsoft Ooutlook, open the sent message, click actions & "Recall this message".
