Inserting an attachment into a message.
Create a new message.
Press alt I for the insert dialog.
Hit enter on file attachment.
An insert attachment dialog will begin.  You will be in an edit field for
filename.  Type the path and file name exactly,
If you wish you can also tab to the look in
combo box and select the c drive then tab and select the folders until you 
find
the file you wish to attach.
Once you have specified the file name, press enter.
The message should have an attachment.
Fill in the to address and send it just like any other message.



or, another way is:

lets use your documents folder as an example. while in your documents 
folder, highlight a file you wish to send as an attachment.  now, press 
applications key, down arrow until you hear, send to and press enter. now 
down arrow until you hear mail recipient, press enter. now you will be 
prompted for a person's email address, once you have the address inserted, 
just send the message as you normally do.
Saving a file attachment you recieve in an email.
There are two ways you can save a file attachment.
First as you are reading the message, press insert a to find the
attachment.  You will land on the attachment.  Press
enter.  The open attachment dialog will start, the save it to disk radio
button is the default so just hit enter.  The save as dialog will start. The
file name will already be specified in the file name field.  You can change 
this
to include the full path and name of the file as described before.  Or you 
can
shift tab twice to the save in combo box.  Press the down arrow to open the
combo box.  Arrow to the c drive and then tab to move to the list view with 
the
list of folders.  Select the folder where you want to save it and hit enter.
Then tab to the save button and press enter.  The attachment should be saved 
in
the folder where you specified.

The second way is while you are on the message in the message list, press 
alt f
for the file menu.  Arrow down and hit enter on save attachment (or press v 
for
save attachemnt).  The save attachment dialog will begin.  You will be in a
listview of the attachments.  Tab to the save in edit field and type the 
path
where you want to save the file, for example C:\WINDOWS\Desktop.  Press 
enter.
