Outlook.com is known for its great features and support. It usually sends your emails in a flash but for those who don’t know, there is also a feature to recall or delay your emails in Microsoft Outlook. You don’t really need to install an add-in or extension for this feature but just need to create a rule that runs automatically in the background and delays sending your email. This feature is very useful in a case where you often make mistakes and that is why you want to check your email even after sending it.
If you are an Outlook.com fan, you will surely love this feature. Do let us know how you like the newly added feature.
