delete email sent

[falonef]

Hello.
from a private email account (hotmail.com) I mistakenly sent an email to the wrong person.

Do you know if I can call her back, so that the recipient can't read it?

in the office with outlook is possible, but with a private email account can you do too?

It is very urgent if I can fix it to the error I have to do it before the email is read so the question of hours!!!

Help! !

I read that outlook has a so-called "recall" function that allows you to delete the email if the recipient has not yet opened it. on the web interface of the hotmail account there is not this feature, try to configure outlook (now windows mail) so that you point to this hotmail.com account and see if this feature appears.

you are what I thought of doing tomorrow from the office using Outlook 2010 with the hotmail connector I already installed. Maybe with the exchange server in the office I can.

Any other ideas?

I couldn't even get through the office. once the email departed from the web can no longer be withdrawn, deleted or replaced.

for the record I recreated and sent back to the same person the same email with the same title but without attachments approx. 30 times. so doing we say that I tried to deceive the person, opening the first 10 emails sees that it is empty emails and then after about 10 times it could think of a problem with the email server and therefore should have erased them all discouraged by the first outcomes.

If this method has been effective I cannot confirm it yet.

Maybe I gave someone else an idea.

I read that outlook has a so-called "recall" function that allows you to delete the email if the recipient has not yet opened it.

"to call" an email is not, in general, possible. when your server sends the email, this is received from the recipient server, convincing it to delete it is not possible, and however it would be risky*.
it is not outlook that allows to recall the email, but exchange. in that case you have sender and recipient managed by the same internal server, and then you can do the operation of "recall". However if with outlook send emails to external addresses, nothing to do, once sent you can no longer do anything.

(*)
think if you send an email with two 'a' and 'b' recipients. the email arrives exactly the same as both, so 'b', having the transmission fingerprint, could delete the email from the 'a' server without the sender knowing anything about it.

for the record I recreated and sent back to the same person the same email with the same title but without attachments approx. 30 times.

This is called spam. risks that servers put you in blacklist for heuristics. . .
be careful that you can fool the recipient, but the servers are not. servers know what happened, whether it's a mistake or it's a thing wanted.
however no heuristic puts in blacklist for 30 mails... We say that under 500 should not even notice it. . .
