When writing an email, go to your File menu. Press the down arrow until
you come to the Attachments menu. Press enter and you will have several
options. Most likely, you will want to attach a file. Press enter on
Files and tab through the dialog box that appears.
When you receive an email with an attachment, you can open it by going
to the Attachments menu in your File menu. By simply pressing enter on
this option, you will find a complete list of all of the attachments in
that email.
If you want to confirm that you selected the correct files that you
wanted to attach to your email, the only way I have found to do this is
to first send the message to your Outbox folder. You can then reopen the
message and view all of the attachments. This is, to say the least,
rather cumbersome but it is the only way I have found to make it work.
Perhaps someone else has a suggestion on how to make this work better.
Hope this helps.
