    Recall forwarded message sent.
    I need to know recall a message forwarded through Smart Zone Communications/Internet Explorer and delete message sent or resend original message forwarded and resend, however, I do not know how and where to locate tool to do this? Email sent has no attachments or pictures just plain text and it is in my sent box or folder of emails sent. Thanks.

    Under tools, you can recall the message. If you use 2007 Outlook, open the message and then under other actions is recall message. Beware that most of the time, the email is left on the machine with the subject crossed out. The person will know that you recalled the message. It's always a good idea to send a new email right away.

    This would have been good advice if the OP was using Outlook 2007. However, it looks like they were using a WEB based e-mail. In any case, Recall will only work, if the recipient's E-mail server supports the feature and then only if the mail hasn't been opened yet.

    Using Outlook to recall a message only works in a corporate Exchange server environment. Looks like the OP is using an ISP so he has no options.
