How do I pull up a sent message, before the receiver read it?

[Ali M. Al Farras]

Sometimes, after sending a message using outlook, you find out that the
message need to be reviewed or you want to change something, then you wish to
pull out the message from the receiver and resend it again. So, I heard that
there is an option in Outlook does that. Please, if any one knows how to it
let me know.
Thank you.

The feature that exists in Outlook is Message Recall and is specific to mails
sent via Exchange Server to other users in the Exchange organization (not
to mention it is has a very questionable success rate).

If that's the case, http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/HP052421841033.aspx.

If it isn't, well... you can't.

Even if you are on an Exchange Server, the feature doesn't always work.
Also, the recipient may be quicker to open the mail message than you can
recall it - you may be simply too late.
