timeoutgurlie -> Unsend Checked...? (5/29/2006 11:16:18 AM)

In the 'read mail' page, there's a button that says 'unsend checked'...does this mean users can just click that and 'unsend' mail that's been sent to another user already?

If anyone knows for sure, I'd love to hear what this button's about. Thanks [:D]

t.o.g.

It unsends any message that HAS NOT BEEN READ.  I have used it when I noticed a larger typo just as I was sending it.  Other than that, not a very useful button.

Yours,

You guessed it.  And the other person will still see that you "unsent" the message.  You can only unsend it IF it has not yet been read.  I am not sure ... but I think if you delete the message ... it also goes away ... but I don't think it shows up at all on the other end (unless they've already read it).  If you want to experiment ... you can with me. 
Hope this helps

I knoe this is a little off center of this topic but since the OPs question has been answered... I wonder what happened to the feature in the mail section that told if  your post had been deleted  unread??? I thought it was a useful feature, as it stands right now your post can sit in one's box & you have no way of telling if it's still there or they've deleted it unread...

Really!  I didn't know they'd changed that feature ... but now that you mention it ... I haven't seen any "deleted unread" in a long while.  Bet it was bad PR ... too many females delete emails wholesale & it caused some comments to the SIGOPS.  Guess they figure it's easier to leave the idiots wondering rather than field any complaints.

Simply deleting a message does not unsend it at all, even if unread by the recipient. It just removes it from your side. With unsending, the "envelope" is still there, but the contents are deleted.

I also found the "deleted unread" feature useful. Good information to have, right? I mean, not a pleasant thing to see, but good info, just the same.

It was good for when people send you bullshit about this or that thing you stated in the forums.

Also...if you unsend mail that hasn't been read and that mail had a photo attachment...the photo still gets sent.
Keep that in mind.  They won't get the email, but will still get the pic.  I learned the hard way.  :(

Today's lesson  brought to you by the helpful people of Collar Me [;)]

Thank you all. I learned something new here.




timeoutgurlie -> RE: Unsend Checked...? (5/29/2006 9:29:10 PM)

^ Me too [:D]

Thanks a lot everyone, and thanks for the offer to experiment with your mailbox DomDoc, very courteous ad kind indeed, appreciate it [:D]

Now that I know what it does, I'm satiated...I just hate curiosity.  I would've had to play with the buttons if nobody replied [:-] lol
