Being curious, too, I checked and found this:
"If you are using Outlook 2003 in a Microsoft Exchange
environment you have the option to recall e-mail messages that
you have sent to other Outlook clients in the Exchange
environment."

I'd have thought that it would only affect addresses in that
environment. Is this another case of M$ presuming that if you're
not in their environment you don't exist?
