Files can be attached to an email message. Also, other Outlook items, such as messages, contacts, or tasks can be included with messages that you send.

 NOTE: While Outlook doesn’t have a preset limit, many Internet service providers (ISPs) restrict the size of messages that you can send, as well as the size of your email mailbox.

  1. Create a message, or for an existing message, click ReplyReply All, orForward.
  2. In the message window, on the Message tab, in the Include group, clickAttach File.
  1. Browse to and click the file that you want to attach, and then click Insert.

 TIP: When composing a message, you can also attach files by using the commands on the Insert tab in the Include group, or drag files from folders on your computer and drop them on the message window.
