You can attach a file to your message through any of these three options-the Paper clip button on the Compose message window; using Windows Explorer and then navigating back to your Compose message window; or by dragging and dropping the file into your message window.

To attach multiple files, first compose your message in the Compose/Reply Message window. Next, open Windows Explorer and highlight all the files you want to attach. Third, drag the files over the top of the New or Reply Message window that is on your toolbar and hold them there long enough for the window to become active. Release your mouse button of the message. There you are-multiple files attached at once.

A conventional method to remove an attachment without deleting the mail itself from your mailbox currently does not exist. As a workaround, forward the message to yourself and before sending it, right-click on the attachment and select Remove.

In either Mail or News, if you take the time to open the message window, rightclick on the attachment and you can either Open, Print, Save or Quick View the attachment. If you would prefer to save the attachment without opening the message window, you have two additional options.

For starters, you can uses File > Save Attachments. Alternatively, if you have enabled Show preview pane Header under View> Layout, click on the paper clip that appears in the upper right corner of the Preview pane, click again and you should get a dialog box asking if you want to open the file or save it to disk. Choosing Save to Disk will call up the Save As dialog box without opening the attachment.

When receiving messages with attachments, if you click on the attachments, if you click on the attachment paperclip, you will get the standard ‘Save attachment as’ warning box. However, even though the file type is registered on your system, the ‘Always ask before opening this type of file warning at the bottom of the dialog box is inactive and you cannot turn it off.

Conversely, with files, such as *.txt;.,*doc and *.xlw,the Always ask … warning box is active and you can disable it if you want to (though this is NOT recommended). The behavior is different because Outlook Express and IE 4.0 do not treat all file types the same way. The files that are labeled as ‘dangerous’ include.exe,.com,.bat,.lnk,.reg,.url,.zip and others.

When you attempt to open these files, you always will be prompted to Save it to disk because they can potentially do a lot of damage. File types that are not considered a threat allow you to turn off the warning. OE and IE attempt to make users aware of the truly dangerous download situations.
