Hi,

I received an e-mail with an interesting attachment consisting of
several color photos. When I attempt to send the e-mail to a friend
using the "reply" icon and with the friend's URL inserted, only the text
goes. The attachment's address does not appear on screen, and does not
go with the e-mail text.

Is there a way that I can send the attachment along with the e-mail's text?

Thank you.

Are you replying to the person that sent you the photos? Reply strips them
since the sender already has them. If you want to send them to someone else,
use Forward. That leaves the photos attached.

I am replying to someone else. I tried using Forward, and it worked. In
my 12 years of using Windows laptops, I never ran into this before.
Thanks a lot for your help.
