UTAS Home › Information Technology Services › Service Desk › › Attaching Files to Messages
You can attach and send multiple files from your computer.
When you specify a file to attach, a copy of the file is attached to the message; the original remains
saved in its original location.
The size of the files you attach to a message can affect how many files you can include. By default, the size limit is 5 megabytes.
To attach a file to a message from the compose window, you can either click the Attach icon or
the Attachments link provided. The Attach File window pops up.
Attachments in .gif and .jpg file formats sent from Communications Express are displayed as part
of your email messages. Attachments from other mail systems sometimes appear as icons or links.
Other file formats, such as voice or fax attachments, appear as icons or links.
In the message, click the attached file name next to Attachments in the message’s header section. A dialog box appears.
View the file from its current location, or save the attachment in a selected folder on your machine.
You can save attached files, such as those in .gif and .jpg file formats, to your local disk.
