1. This person is not logged onto Outlook.
2. The message has been received and is sitting in their inbox unread.
3. The person has read/moved the message.
4. The person declined the message recall request.
The best and only fool-proof (deliberate choice of adjective here) method is to save messages to drafts before sending and then review carefully sender and message before hitting Send.

After furious head scratching, Feldo1 asked:
| I tried the recall process this AM. The recipient and I are both on a
| Microsoft Exchange and he uses Outlook. I did the recall process
| within about one minute of sending. I have not yet received any
| result notice, either positive or negative. What does that mean?
| And I really need someone who knows because it was a business
| message that would be recieved by a very wrong person!
