Sending or Receiving a File
Sometimes when you create an e-mail message, you want to send along a file as well. Files sent with e-mail are called message attachments. When you send the message, the file goes along with the message so the recipient can open it on his or her computer. When you receive an e-mail attachment, you can open it directly from the message, save it to your hard drive and open it from there, or print it straight from the message to a printer. Messages that have attachments display a paper clip icon to the left of the message author’s name or below the message received date, depending on the location of the Reading Pane and the width of the display.
