Odd jobs+courses on resume?

What's the proper way to email a cover letter and resume?

• I'm sending my resume to a company via email. They specifically stated not to mail or fax the resume, only email to their career site. This is the first time I'm emailing a resume, so I'm not sure what's the proper way to do this. How should I send it? 1) Put a short message in the body of the email, attach cover letter and resume. 2) Put my cover letter in the body of the email, attach resume. 3) Put my cover letter in the body of the email, attach cover letter and resume. 4) Put my cover letter and resume in the body of the email, attach cover letter and resume. 5) Other suggestion? Thanks!
