Help Retrieve email I sent to the wrong person

  #1  
Sep 28th, 2003
I just sent an email to the wrong person - the guy I'm applying for a job for. I know he hasn't opened it yet because its Sunday. Is there ANY way to get it back???????

Please help! I'm desperate. A pending job could depend on it.

Thank you!

Does hotmail have a help desk? I'd like to ask them a couple other questions too.

The only way I know of deleting sent mail before it's read is if you have AOL and the person you're sending it to also has AOL.

if you are using outlook, open the sent message, click actions & "Recall this message"

too late in this case i'm sure but it's a handy thing to know.

You need to learn attention to detail.

This world would be a lot nicer place if there weren't so many smart ass people in it, as in Mr. or Miss kmase. Did you happen to notice rkvandyk's post; that a pending job could depend upon it? OF course, you are probably Mr. Perfect, who never makes mistakes and has a nice comfortablre job.

I was going to ask the same question about a message I sent from Yahoo. I know how to do it in Outlook and there are probably others, but I think most don't.

Is there any tolerance or compassion left in this world of ours? I see less and less all the time and this is a perfect example.

Did I make any mistakes here?
Joe

were you able to retrieve a sent e-mail? I don't know if I can retrieve an e-mail sent through Juno if it's still unopened
Thanks
