It cannot be difficult at all for Google to implement - ie, if they want to. AOL certainly has this feature which is why many are still holding on to their old accounts, and many more are signing up for it. We all are prone to mistakes some time sooner if not later, and having this feature is indeed a great protection in avoidance to maladies. So get to work GMAIL.

Most personal accounts <a href="http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/how-message-recall-works-HA001091760.aspx" rel="nofollow">don't use Exchange</a>, and even for Exchange users the chance of succeeding in a message recall are spotty at best. It's unfeasible to have such a feature on any web email provider, <em>even</em> Gmail. Besides, nowadays by the time you realize your mistake, the recipient is already reading your message on their iPhone 4S. <br /><br />See also @Alex Chitu's comment back in March 2009.xanghehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06496913962150586457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-15084953735065098672011-12-13T07:28:46.278-08:002011-12-13T07:28:46.278-08:00I completely agree!

The recipient of the mail you want to recall must also be using an Exchange server e-mail account. For example, you cannot recall a message sent to someone's personal Internet service provider (ISP) (ISP: A business that provides access to the Internet for such things as electronic mail, chat rooms, or use of the World Wide Web. Some ISPs are multinational, offering access in many locations, while others are limited to a specific region.)
