If you\u2019re a Gmail user<\/a>, chances are that you\u2019ve heard of \"Undo Send\"<\/strong> feature. This feature makes your mail to sit in the Outbox for a predetermined amount of time before being sent out<\/strong>, giving you a grace period where you\u2019re able to modify or retract it.<\/p>\n

Microsoft\u2019s Outlook<\/strong> client has such a feature as well, although it is buried beneath a bunch of menus. If you\u2019re interested in activating this feature, here\u2019s what you can do:<\/p>\n

Step 1<\/h3>\n

Open up your Outlook client<\/strong>, click on File<\/strong>, then select Manage Rules & Alerts<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"rules<\/figure>\n

Step 2<\/h3>\n

In the Rules and Alerts window<\/strong>, click on New Rule<\/strong> and choose the \"Apply rule on messages I send\"<\/strong> located at the bottom of the list.<\/p>\n

\"apply<\/figure>\n

Step 3<\/h3>\n

Clicking on \"Next\"<\/strong> will bring you to the conditions page. If you have no particular conditions you would like to add onto the initial rule, click \"Next<\/strong>\" again.<\/p>\n

On the Actions page, check the \"defer delivery by a number of minutes\" <\/strong>box. Clicking on the blue-tinted text will open a dialog box <\/strong>that allows you to enter your preferred amount of time<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"deferred<\/figure>\n

Step 4<\/h3>\n

Once you\u2019ve decided the time frame, clicking on \"Next\"<\/strong> will bring you to the exceptions page. If you have no exceptions to add, click \"Next<\/strong>\".<\/p>\n

This will open up the \"Finish Rule Setup\"<\/strong> page where you can name your newly created rule.<\/strong> Click the \"Finish\" button<\/strong> to enable it.<\/p>\n

\"finished<\/figure>\n

One thing to note about \"Undo Send\"<\/strong> for the Outlook Client is that it is only available in Outlook for Windows 2016, 2013, and 2010<\/strong>. Those of you who are using an older version of Outlook, you will not have access to this function and for now, Outlook\u2019s Mac client does not have this feature<\/strong> as well.<\/p>\n
