Is it possible to retrieve a sent e-mail before it has been opened? Say if you sent it to the wrong person?

Question

What a great innovation if we could do this. Can anyone invent it if it isn't possible as yet?

Answer 1

Once email reaches its destination server, it becomes the "property" of that organization. On some systems (if setup to allow it) you can retract a message, but generally only if the recipient is in the same domain as you. In short, the only people in a place to assist with this are the administrators of the remote server; however getting an administrator to cooperate, with just the basis of "I clicked send too soon" is a tricky task.

Best of luck!
