They are looking for a way to recall an email already sent out. Which is basically impossible in Express and only somewhat possible in Outlook... I thought they just wanted a copy of a sent email.

As NK said, the person is trying to "unsend" or get back the message. They werent asking about the "Sent Items" folder. That confused me at first too.
