It sounds as if the email server of the person receiving the email (which could be you) is stripping attachments, or certain types of attachments depending on the file extension. That may or may not be an option the person can have changed.

It's true the email I received with the attachments was in HTML formatting. I tried your suggestion and created a forwarded email in non-HTML. That did not succeed in including the attachments. I'm also thinking that's not the problem because sometimes I am able to forward attachments using HTML email. Wondering if you or anyone else has other suggestions. Thank you.
