We’ve all done it, sending out a message that has typos, missing attachments, incorrect recipients, or… worse. No need to panic!
Now you can finally use the Undo Send command to cancel a message before it’s sent. This feature is new in Outlook for Mac, and is around for a while in the web version. But… you need to activate it.

-
To set up a delay before sending messages, select Outlook > Preferences > Composing.
- In the Composing dialog box, set the delay time (5, 10, 15, or 20 seconds).
Once the delay has been set up, a prompt appears at the bottom of the app each time you send an email. The prompt will remain visible for the length of time you’ve set in your preferences. -
