Information from a document can be pasted directly into a new message. For example, if you want to share a specific paragraph with your recipient, instead of an entire document, you can copy and paste the paragraph right into a message. Other times it will be more appropriate to attach the document itself.

As with other email clients, Windows Mail lets you attach documents to messages. You can attach a document to a message using the steps described below.

1. Click Start, All Programs and click Windows Mail.
2. From the File menu, click New Mail Message.
3. Click the Insert menu and click the Attach button.
4. From the Insert Attachment box, click the file you want to attach and click Attach.
5. Click Send when you are finished composing your message.
