Help, can I withdraw an email?

[Kendodd]

Sent an email to somebody by mistake, can I get it back before they open it?

What mail provider? I know you can recall things via Outlook, assume most must offer something similar?

You can try....depends on their mail server.

Can you really - how ?

I don't think it will work... I sometimes receive emails at work, folowed by an email saying "Kendodd would like to recall the email "subject of email you didn't mean to send""

It was hotmail, I have looked on the internet and have no chance.
