Attach a File to an E-Mail in Windows Mail

Attach a File to an E-Mail

in Windows Mail

 

1. Click Start and choose All Programs?Windows Mail.
2. Start a new e-mail message.
3. In the new message, either choose Insert?File
Attachment or click the paper clip icon to see the screen.
4. Find the file you want to attach, select it, and click
Open.
5. The item is attached to your e-mail.
6. Finish the rest of your e-mail and click Send.
You have to attach each file separately because you can’t attach a
folder. To send multiple files in one message, create a compressed
folder containing the files you want to send and attach that file to
the message.
Be careful not to send files that are too large for your recipient’s
e-mail server to handle (under 2 MB, if possible). Your recipient’s
mailbox may not be able to handle large attachments that contain
songs or movies, for example.
Some e-mail attachments may be automatically filtered out of your
messages by e-mail servers, which might view them as potential
viruses. Always check with your recipients to make sure that they
receive your attachments
