    Hi Eben Ezer Tres. I do see the 10 second rule to unsend an email, however all previous versions of Outlook had an option to recall an email at any time after sending. This could be recalling an email beyond 10 seconds...a minute, 5 minutes, or any hour. Why is this option not shown in this new Outlook? I would assume that people want to recall an email well after the 10 second rule. Could this option just temporarily not an option now since this Outlook is in a testing phase and not generally released to the public?

    Agree completely PedroHTG... there is a pretty significant difference between delayed send and the ability to recall / replace a previously sent message. I've only been using this "New Outlook" since this morning, and it's disappointing that I can't even make it to mid-day without stumbling upon a feature I use, that has been removed.

    Hi Robert,

    I like where Outlook is going with it, but they shouldn't remove features that were in the previous version. There is no technological reason why Microsoft would remove the feature of being able to recall a message that was sent...recalling it at any time after it was sent. Let's hope this is just happening on this "pre-trial version." The 10 second rule feature they created on this new version of Outlook, sort of not makes sense. Outlook coders are basically thinking, "oh, people have 10 seconds or less to determine if an email should be recalled". This feature doesn't make sense, why not allow an email to be recalled at any time thereafter of being sent?

    I completely agree that losing this feature is a problem. Just this morning I had to open the Old Outlook to recall a message.

    Katherine,

    Any word on when this feature will be restored? The ability to recall a message is pretty important and can't imagine why this would have been taken out.
