E-mail is a great way to
send files across the
Internet, and the procedure
is simple. Just follow these
steps to attach a file to
your e-mail.
When you insert a file
attachment into an e-mail,
your computer creates a copy
of the file. Your original file
does not move from its
location.
You can also insert an
attachment by clicking the
Attach V button on the e-mail
message rather than going to
the File menu.
1. After typing an e-mail
message in Outlook Express,
click the Insert menu and
select File Attachment. The
Insert Attachment dialog
box is displayed.
2. Locate the file that you want
to attach to the e-mail. You
may need to click the down
arrow next to the Look in box
to select the appropriate drive.
3. Click the file that you want to attach to the e-mail.
4. Click the Attach button. The Insert Attachment dialog box
closes and the file is inserted as an attachment into your
e-mail.
Note: You should avoid attaching large files to e-mails, for example, an
attachment over 1MB may take several minutes to send.
