Ed,
We need to know more about your email client.  What program or interface do
you use to send and receive email?  Is it Microsoft Outlook, Outlook
Express, Mozilla Thunderbird, the SBCGlobal web site, etc?  There are tiny
differences between them all.

On my computer, using MS Outlook, I'm able to go into My Documents,
right-click on the file and select "Send To" then "Mail Recipient".  The
file is then attached to a new email.
