How to add another email to desktop?

How do i take something from my desktop and add an attachment to my outgoing email?

  • how do you add attachments from desktop to email

  • Answer:

    Step by step. There are many ways to do it...This is what I have the most success with.. RIGHT clicking on those items usually pops up a box and gives you the option of where to send it...I send it to the DESKTOP. You will get an icon for it, which you can delete by right clicking on it after you are done. Go to your email and click on COMPOSE. Then click on ATTACH located just under your subject line. At least five lines will pop up with the word BROWSE on each one of them. click on BROWSE and when the box comes up something will be in the LOOK IN box...If it is not there place DESKTOP in this box. This can be accomplished by clicking on the down arrow on the right side of the LOOK IN BOX. DESKTOP should be one of the options. Just click on it and it will end up in the LOOK IN box.Everything on your desktop will be displayed, which should include those that you sent there. Click on the first one you want and it should go to the bottom box. When you click on OPEN that should move it to the message you are composing and it will be in the first BROWSER box. Click on ATTACH FILES..located just to the left of CANCEL...and that should start the download to attach it to your message. Repeat for anything else you want to attach. Be careful not to download too much ( varies with each recipient) could be anywhere between 5MB and 20MB. good luck In addition,,,if the above dont work...click on one of these sites... http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outloo... http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answe... http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/or... ....Have a great day...................

Below "subject" click "attach files". In the next window click "browse" to find and select a file or photo from your harddrive. Click the file, then click "open". Now click "attach files" to upload them. When the upload is complete click "continue to message". http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/basics/basics-41.html

In the Compose area, click the grey "Attach Files' bar (with a paperclip sign). That opens a Browse Files area. One of the selections is 'Desktop'. Select the file you wish from the down arrow, and highlight it with a click. Select Open File, then click the grey Attach Files bar. It will take a while to download to your mail, and then return you to the main email. Yahoo limits attachments to 10 MB, but that's huge, so no worry.

I guess your question is: ... from my desktop and ADD IT AS an attachment ... Maybe you are curious to know if you can drag and drop sth. from your desktop into a compose mail area; well, I think you cannot. This would be quite handy though. 2 methods: 1) while composing your mail, clicking somewhere "add attachment" and so on (choosing the right file in a drop down menu): in your case clicking first Desktop (in left icon menu of the Windows pop up box); 2) right clicking on a single file on your desktop and choosing "Copy to" > email recipient (2nd choice), but the result can be uncertain: in my case Windows Live Mail opens (a mail program I seldom use) and although it says that the clicked file is attached, I have no link in the recipient's mail (i.e. I sent it as a test to my gmail).
