Do you mean recall? https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/recall-an-outlook...

That only works within an organisation, right?

Otherwise you just get an email. I got one recently.

No, Exchange ActiveSync (as the other commenter correctly identified it) really allows an admin to wipe your device - ostensibly of mail, but often of all other data as well.[0]

If your Outlook server disables IMAP & POP3, then the ActiveSync protocol is AFAIK the only way to get in-app emails on your phone. Admins do this so that they can forcibly wipe the device if they "need" to.

Historical note: There was also MAPI for a long time (and I believe MAPI over HTTP/S)

Still is

I was not sure which you meant.
