This is the one thing that Microsoft did that was probably good, and I never used because I was always so arrogant that I would think to myself… “I’m not going to forget attachments” and then poof… That fuckers gone and you’re looking for the recall button you never enabled.
You had to enable it because basically all it did was delay the send of the email for x amount of time you set. Always had it off, regretted it about 3 times at work and each time I told myself… You’ll never make that mistake again. And left it off
Damnit, I hate to defend Microsoft, but that’s an office thing as well, might just be their webmail and certain versions of Outlook apps though, I try to avoid using them these days. But did a lot of service desk support 2018-2022. So people were always asking for the damndest of things. The number of com add-ons disabling do to start times, pst files not being allowed in OneDrive, view settings fucked up, pst’s uploading to the online archive and missing files is enough to make you want to never have to have outlook around.

Gmail took it a step further and if it detects you said “attached” or whatever, it’ll ask you if you forgot anything before it sends.
