If you are in a Microsoft Exchange/Outlook e-mail environment, you can "un
send" or recall an e-mail message. Yet another MicroSoft "expansion" of
existing standards.
Does squat if the other end is not running Outlook or if the server that
the message went to is not Exchange.
Shouldn't have locked up your e-mail client unless you are running Outlook
and it is _very_ confused about it's server.
