This would have been great…for my boss who just retired. She would recall emails all the time. I’m glad I’ve learned it now. Thank you!

[@ajlong404]

I really like your use of humor in this video. Your content is always terrific, but this one made me smile.

[@PPCHSgabrod]

I´ve been using Delay Delivery for a long time. Especially useful when you need to manage or manipulate your time and push forward responses or follow ups. Thanks for tips.

[@Cartner852]

OMG This actually saved my life. Never knew it can be done like this. Thank you!

[@adrielsg100]

This is fantastic. Just love all your videos on tips and tricks. Keep these useful videos coming and thanks heaps.

[@networkingsystemadministra3005]

Thanks Kevin! My Outlook interface is missing the "Action" and then "recalling" option. any suggestion ? does it requires to have admin/or certain privilege ?

[@gregoryigbinoba4778]

Thanks for the video. Question. If I recall an email that was sent from a shared mailbox inbox. Is there a way to have the response emails stop being sent to the team?

[@am8838]

Wow... you saved me once again Kevin... Thank you!!!

[@saravanannatarajan6515]

[@salmanqadir9336]

Hi Kevin, I'm facing issue of password prompt pop-up & send/receive error in office 365 outlook. I tried to reset password rest, checked server settings, port no.s. Still I'm facing this issue

[@BAM0907]

Hey Kevin the option I like to use is to uncheck the Send immediatly in Options>Advanced. That way i controll when emails are sent.

[@krayzieaxel]

Is there a way to recall emails from Office 365 Outlook email? I don't see this on the options.

[@vamseenation]

Awesome Video and Kudos to you, the perfect person on KZbin for anything Microsoft related. Thanks so much for making these videos. Also I. Wanted to ask you how do we get in to Microsoft? I’m working in the email marketing and not seeing any openings there does even Microsoft do email marketing?

[@blackmownkey]

Despite my having the delay send activated, I just had to recall my first message in 13 years! I use the desktop version, but my colleagues seem to mostly use the online version. Oh well. I tried and now I know how to do it~

[@Hopefully2025]

Hi kevin, awesome video. I always check my emails before I send but I only noticed the mistakes after it was sent. I'm sure not the only one.

[@KevinStratvert]

It's a law of email... mistakes found before sending 0... mistakes found after sending >0. 🫢

[@cus7ard42]

do you know how to update tpm? i have tpm 1.2 amd i want to play valorant but i dont know how to update it

[@JohnnyInspiration]

This tutorial is extremely amazing but full of caveats. Thanks a lot for your ingenuity.

[@eswords1]

may I suggest that in the video name you state Which Outlook you are using, Web 'hotmail' or installed app.I figured it out but had to watch a fair amount to figure that out. And for the installed app which version. Msoft confused this with renaming hotmail Outlook.

[@lgiraq5918]

is there way to recall a message that has already been sent to someone outside of my organization as we use office 365

[@fajarfardheen5693]

When the receiver had been read then is it possible to recall?

[@lmanriq]

Hi Kevin, Thanks for all your great videos. Outlook 365 mail merge i.e. with Publisher, can the delivery be delayed?

[@kldfootball]

Thank for your important advice and tutorial

[@vchang826]

Hi! Will they see that you’ve tried to recall the message if it’s already been read when they’re using the desktop version? Thanks for the tips, Kevin!

[@tamtalekishvili3499]

Any solution like this for mobile version of outlook email?(on iOs)?

[@t.jjohnson6317]

Thanks Kevin, I will try again and see if that works.Big Thanks .God bless

[@jeraldrobert573]

[@elrey5523]

Hello do you have a video that’s shows how you can rule where recipients won’t be able to forward your email

[@indraallian6371]

Usefull as allways. Ive already used it but a reminder never hurts. And the web variant I didnt know off. Thanks!

[@luckyangel943]

Do you need to have an outlook account or would a hotmail account work?

[@Rijunkv]

Very very useful information. Thanks

[@karimkalfane7761]

Thanks a lot Kévin !!

[@photogeniqui5031]

I can't find recall option at all is there any way to add or my outlook version not applicable?

[@childofgod8365]

Thank you. You helped me now.

[@computergig3622]

Kevin you saved my ass! Just sent an email to IT in our company with a screenshot of the issue I am having but it contained my password. Silly me. I recalled it successfully. Big thanks!

[@phunguyengia9068]

Hi Kevin, can you make tutorial clip about app Vacation Tracker which can be integrated into Microsoft Teams? In fact, I have been watching a lot short clip about this app, but still confusing how to use it right. Great thanks!

[@NikhilPatil-je7eh]

willing to learn. Unless you already understand setups, then I gues sit's gonna be easier, but as a classically trained pianist I was blown

[@gggg-vg4vj]

is this outlook on your pc ? online outlook aka hotmail does not have those features

[@KevinStratvert]

Yes, Outlook desktop only currently.

[@Biswasfamily1]

after recall a mail, can i reply on same mail in outlook ?? plz reply

[@moisesaardaya]

Nice video on recalling the mails, too bad for its limitations. Great video anyways.

[@TamerSadek]

Is this recall feature available in Microsoft Outlook 365 on Mac?

[@KevinStratvert]

[@ValorantRivals]

So if I turn of that Tracking checkbox then no-one can recall messages in my Outlook?

[@KevinStratvert]

Yes 👍

[@user-og2nj7jf4k]

Wow!!! Great tip!!! Thank you.

[@lindaifeoma3003]

Thank you this really helped me

[@jewa3051]

nah bro why did you need to mention that they will get a message saying I tried to recall the message if they're using the web right after I recalled the message

[@sherritwilleger5353]

My tool bar doesn't look like yours. Why? I don't have the move option. Please help!!

My Outlook doest have a menu feature like this.

[@magn0lia_tree655]

Love the delay rule. I use 3 mins 😀

[@christinac2012]

Still don't get why I see my error AFTER I hit send and not before. Ugh! Wish the recall email feature worked the way we'd need it to. Thanks again for the help! You are awesome! :)

[@NottyGurlStyle]

Could you do one for the 2023 Outlook?

[@vaibhavchaudhary5461]

Can't we recall emails from shared mailbox? I'm trying but the option is greyed out. I'm able to recall from primary mailbox but not from shared one. Could you please share troubleshooting for this one if it's possible. Thank you

[@Vetonit]

Hello Kevin, can you please make a video on how to setup and use google analytics to track traffic on your website.

[@Michelle-ov3xp]

Hello Kevin, I'm running for office 365 and cannot see that item about recalling an email can't see that icon you are pointing out. I do not have one note installed as a part of office 365, or at least it's not showing up on outlook have any suggestions on why I'm not being able to see what you're showing. Thank you Michelle

[@everythingrandom624]

Have you figure it out yet already? I have the same concern.

[@dennisrasilez]

Thanks for the information

[@bigcheezmoe]

Your English is very good.

[@sha6267]

Heyyy, thanks for your help. I tried to recall it And I got a report with a time frame. So am waiting to see if we can recall this

[@PMA1964]

Thank you so much. You don't know how many times, that i have sent an email in the office and didn't proof read it, and i could kick myself so many times. Now i don't have too

[@ravinderjitkaur9074]

Thanks Its very helpful

[@abhisheksingla794]

How can you do that on MAC

[@barttez]

There are no options for this currently!!!

[@literaryjunkie6987]

LOL I like the delay till morning idea >.

[@muhammadiqbal3502]

Thank your Video Really I will Appreciate you

[@michielmitchy6601]

1:34 that category of "actions" isn't there...

[@mardiniwilldern]

I don’t understand why we still don’t have a proper recall email feature across all devices, platforms and email providers!

[@synthwave7]

Recalling has always been a problem. Emails are bound to legal terms - If the recipient has read an email, it is now a legal transaction. You cannot "unread" something, therefore recalling or removing "read" emails aren't allowed.

[@prokorshopal4865]

0:00 - Hi Kevin. 👋 7:13 - Definitely 601st thumbs up from me to the prodigious video. 👍 Cheers.

Its great wow! Loved it

[@zinadottonwealthandsuccess2569]

Awesome recall video

[@FeelingENTITLED]

I prefer to use Yahoo than Outlook. But I am actively using Gmail. Why do most Microsoft products have the same interfaces?

[@Pankoz43]

Hi kevin. Should a message be recalled after setting with delayed delivery? I mean mistakes found after sending with delayed setting and need to be recalled?

[@KevinStratvert]

If you're delaying the mail, it should still be sitting in your outbox. No need to recall since it hasn't actually sent yet. You can just go into your outbox, click on the message, and then make your edits.

[@mohammedfaheem7391]

Can you make a video on how to create a bot for zoom for raising hand before everyone in a meeting while joining.

[@KevinStratvert]

Thanks for the suggestion, Mohammed! I'm not sure if there is enough demand for a video like this ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Let me know if you think otherwise.

[@IshaShalom_Vlogs]

Thanks, It helped.

[@avnii-sadiku6503]

Can you recall a sent email in exchange?

[@ononsoorizu6556]

I use a Mac it looks so different. Can’t do this

[@t.jjohnson6317]

Great vids ,lots of cool info.Thank-you. Q for you How do you get email account back from Microsoft.They say it was compermized. I filled out all the forms.over and over.Thank-you for your talent.Terry

[@KevinStratvert]

Make sure to use two factor authentication and a very secure password to avoid this issue in the future. Once they disable it, filling out the forms is likely your best option. You can also try tweeting to @Microsoft365 to see if they can help fast track getting the account back. Good luck!

I now still have job thanks to you

[@dpk7317]

Brother after spraying a laptop glass cleaner it is showing blue at the edge please help from yesterday can it be recovered please it is my only laptop please 🙏

[@KevinStratvert]

I'd avoid using glass cleaner moving forward. Glass cleaner has ammonium hydroxide, which interacts poorly with computer screens. Not sure there is any way to reverse. Best way to clean is to use a moist cotton shirt to clean off grime.

The laughing was great. Helped me laugh away a horrible email mistake which could not b withdrawn because they were not using outlook 😂😂😂😂😂😂 oh man....technology sucks sometimes

[@masterbjohnson2]

excellent video

[@MrBendybruce]

This reminds me of many years ago when one of our Operators (IBM z/OS Mainframe) sent out an email to "All Notes Users" (we used Lotus Notes) which they meant to send only to one of their colleagues. It was simply called "The Piano Man" and was one of the crudest filthiest jokes you could ever imagine. I remember reading it with total disbelief. A few minutes later, another email came out with a sincere apology, and then a few days later, we got an email from the CEO about email policy in the workplace. I was told the Operator got fired. I really feel sorry for that poor bastard, a worst case scenario.

My company switched over to 365. Where is the recall option found?

[@KevinStratvert]

Did it not show up where it was in this video?

[@jennV8272]

It shows in Outlook but is it possible on 365? I haven’t seen where.

[@Super1234jd]

@@jennV8272 365 is version of outlook, they are not different 🤦

[@jennV8272]

@@Super1234jd my platform is different. My managers who have used outlook for years are not happy with 365 for several reasons and not having the recalling of the emails is just one part. Many want to go back to the regular Outlook.
